Musings: The price of things

You’d have to be living in a prepaid all-inclusive resort to not notice that the price of just about everything has gone up. This is particularly true since the pandemic, where inflation has soared, but the fact is that everything has always cost more when measured over time.

One such hot button for America is the price of gasoline, and we hear about the AAA national per gallon averages quite often on the radio. Motor fuel is something that has an impact on all of us whether we drive or not, as for any of us to buy stuff it has to get to stores and that requires fuel. The same is true with deliveries whether to the post office or our homes. The cost of transportation is a huge expense.
