When gas prices were near $4/gallon in NY, the price of everything else went up. We were told this rise was due to the cost of producing, shipping etc..rising with the gas prices.

Now that gas prices are tumbling, are prices for everything else about to start tumbling too? I suspect not.

Of course not. If it doesn’t go back up. The government will want to raise the gas tax through the roof since we aren’t paying enough for gas. That’s like strangling a person for breathing too much, but the State of ID already did it.

Food is going to be cheaper along with other things that need transportation.

Deflation is already here and we haven’t hit bottom yet.

Of course they are. It just won’t happen instantly.
