AAA Mid-Atlantic says the average price of a gallon of regular gas in New Jersey on Friday was $3.27, down four cents from last week. Drivers were paying $3.37 a gallon on average a year ago at this time.

The national average price for a gallon of regular gasoline was $3.28, down a penny from last week. Drivers were paying $3.30 a gallon on average a year ago at this time.

Analysts say the recent surge in gas prices due to frigid weather and holiday travel may be ending as the weather improves and demand decreases. They expect prices at the pump to decline heading toward February but believe the national averages before Christmas will likely turn out to have been the lows for this winter.

The problem is even if prices go down on gas and eggs certain things arc baked in. Blue collar salaries will never go down in prices . Wages for the service sector are here to stay. Cars will never be like in 2019 where you can lease a car for $89 because the companies already changed their structure and they just won’t produce unless they can charge exorbitant prices. There are just certain things here to stay and we ain’t ever changing it. Meanwhile there is a white collar recession and salaries never rose. This is Bidens America
