Sure, the price per barrel of crude oil is up.Inflation and many other

in 1941? (the year I was born) A couple of dollars would fill up a car's
gas tank.And look at wages, and the prices of cars and homes and food
etc.Check out,

Adjusted for inflation, we are paying about the same per gallon of
gasoline as people paid in 1941.
