A consumer says, “When inflation rises, it only causes loss. Right now, all these things should not become expensive; rather, prices should decrease. Traffic is not ending, and inflation is rising everywhere. Vehicles run on gas, so at least make gas a little cheaper, or let it remain at whatever price it is.”
