When it began depends on who you ask. You could say that it began on Dec. 23, 1913. Or it began on Feb. 12, 1873. Or it began on April 2, 1792. Or hell, it began when the human race came into being!

It is referring to the Federal Reserve Act, the Coinage Act of 1873, and the Coinage Act of 1792.

Gold and silver, bitchez!

I'm going to say it again!

Historical Gold Charts and Data - London Fix
Gasoline Price History (this is similar to what I paid in Texas over the years)

Year gas price gold price gallons of gas

2000 1.50-1.75 275 157

2003 1.66-1.91 350 210

2006 2.45-3.21 600 183

2009 2.03-2.91 970 333

2011 3.34-4.19 1500 357

2012 3.69 1630 441

So, you can see that in 2000, an ounce of gold only bought 157 gallons of gas, six years later, gold bought 183 gallons, and three years later bought 333 gallons, and today buys just over 440 gallons of gas. It is the cheapest in gold terms so far during this century.

YOUR problem is that your dollar is losing value against gas. In fact, it's losing value against everything else except other CURRENCIES that are being weakened somewhat faster to maintain the competitive export advantage countries have to the US. Only problem with that in the international sense is that it causes price rises, especially food prices, which cause riots in those countries affected because their food budget is a much greater portion of monthly income than we are used to seeing in the US. The US Dollar is losing value because the Fed continues to PRINT MONEY out of thin air. Printing money faster than the rate of population growth or economic growth causes inflation. Using gold/silver as money prevents this for the most part, as it is not easy to mine faster than population growth even with today's modern technology. Look at South Africa with its declining gold mining industry.

feel free to move to East Coast

it's much cheaper around here because NJ is one of the major oil transport routes and refineries here.

the further gas supply gets delivered to a location, the more expensive it is. for your area, it's a damn shame West Coast is suffering from high gas cost because of Hurricane Katrina and Deepwater Horizon oil rig fire. or there might be other reason for high gas cost in California.... maybe it's part of its aggressive pollution control policy. either way... I'm glad I'm never ever gonna live in California.

In South Wales it's about GBP £1.35 per LITRE for unleaded (that's USD $2.19), or $7 a gallon. Count your blessings.

EDIT: In real world terms, that's almost $105 to fill up my car (Celica, so nothing huge) or $24 for my bike.

Gas prices around here are steadily dropping. I got gas a few days ago... cost me $3.39 per gallon. Right now, it's around $3.34 per gallon.

I usually get gas at Kroger, Tom Thumb, or Walmart... because of their 3-cent discount.
