Peer Blog Critique: "Gas under 3$ Nationwide"

          Maybe I just don’t watch the news enough, but I had no idea that the average gasoline price for the nation hadn't been below $3.00 per gallon in four years. What struck me about this article is that I had noticed a similar feeling of astonishment in my recent trips to the pump, which is awesome. The explanation of why the gas prices had risen and fallen is great and easy to understand for someone who is not very well read up on the subject. The only part of the article that I questioned, for lack of a better word, was that the reduced price of gasoline would save the average person only $50 per year. When I thought about my personal usage I thought it would amount to more than that, but in the future, a cited source would quickly clear up the air. All in all it’s a good commentary, and I’m happy to hear that prices are only going to continue dropping in the coming year!
