Paul, $2.00 pg gasolene is indeed a bargain and compares to the .31cent pg in 1964. It is for me anyway. In 1964 I made $6,500 and that was considered average wages. 10 gal of gas represented 3.875% of $125.00 per week wages. If I make $40,000 in 2004, then 10 gal of gas would represent 3.845% of $769. per week wages. Close, but a better bargain at today's $2.00 pg., I read on a previous thread that someone suggested that we should roll back prices to 1964 levels. He did not, however suggest that his wages roll back to the same 1964 levels. They cant have it both ways. What has increased at a greater rate is the taxes we pay.
