The problem with the gas price today is linked to the economic laws. The first economic law is "prices double every 10 years" and the second law is "the law of supply and demand."

10 years ago the average gas price was $1.50 and today the average gas price is $3.00. We don't have to be a genius to predict how much the gas price will be in 10 years $3.00 * 2 = $6 gallon, and in another 10 years, the gas price will be $3.00 * 2 = $12/gallon and so on.

So basically, if you can't find a job that pays you double in 10 years, you will be in a financial disaster because your expenses will be higher than your income.
