How did oil and gas prices affect the economy during cater presidency?

During Carter's presidency, oil and gas prices surged due to the 1979 energy crisis, which was triggered by the Iranian Revolution and subsequent oil supply disruptions. This led to rampant inflation, increased production costs, and a recession, as high energy prices affected nearly all sectors of the economy. Consumer spending declined due to rising fuel costs, and the economic instability highlighted the U.S.'s dependency on foreign oil. Carter's administration faced significant challenges in addressing these economic issues, which contributed to his lower approval ratings and impacted the 1980 election.


Who regulates fuel prices?

Many entities control gas prices. When the U.S. government places tax on gas that is a price control. When the U.S. government keeps oil companies from drilling and building refineries, or making the cost exorbitant, that affects gas prices. When the Middle East countries cut back the amount of oil they drill for, that causes gas prices to rise. The evrironmentalists, putting heavy regulations on gasoline raises gas prices. These are just a few that affect the price of gas.
