2. Don't Forget Gas

And, I read a piece yesterday (ABC Chicago, I think) that said the average gas price nationally is exactly the same as last year and 2 cents higher than '23.
I spreadsheet for local price matches that for '24, but it was 1 or 2 cents higher, not lower, than '23.
Either way, the price of gas hasn't improved & that cost caused a lot of whining under Biden.
People voted over eggs & gas, for a guy who said he would lower those prices, and he didn't, and never could.
