Food prices are still too high, gas as well.

Prices do not come back down after bouts of inflation. Wages increase to catch up to them.

$2.53 is not a high gas price

Depends on how much you have to drive. A tank of gas lasts me a month or more, even driving a gas guzzler, as I live next door to my job and most of the places I go to are close by.

I have no problem with the price of anything. But others do, until wages catch up. There's always a segment that never catch up.
