After the record breaking prices of gas we've seen sky rocket up at the pump this past year, the recent slow and steady decline of fuel prices over the last few weeks were beginning to ease the financial tensions of some.
However, America's gas prices have risen back up for the first time in 99 days, which could mean we are still on a very slippery slope downward when it comes to the ongoing energy crisis.
Because rising gas prices, even if only cents up per day, can lead to much greater inflation problems for our nation, and for the rest of the global free market system.
It is important we monitor these prices closely within the coming months to gain a better idea of where we are headed.
