The cost of gas is just the tip of the iceberg, it is what lies beneath that really effects the economy.
Nearly everything we use and depend on in this country is delivered. From the foods we eat to the essentials we shop for. Then to top that off the production costs of those items also need to rise due to the added fuel costs of everyone from the farmers to the manufactures paying for higher shipping or fuel.
Companies may have to scale back, lay off, or otherwise cut costs to keep themselves in the black. Then all in all this leads to a chain reaction.
