Gas prices continue to soar

GASSED: The price for regular gas at Speedway on Broadway is $3.42 per gallon. Back in 2019, it was $2.38 per gallon. Judging from the news, it appears there’s no end in sight to the rising gas prices. The United States was once oil independent – now we’re groveling to OPEC and Russia. But on the upside, at least we’re not in California, where gas prices have already hit $4.58 per gallon – at least not yet, anyway. (Advocate photo)
