It affects people because if you own a SUV, and your car runs on 60 gallons, you must pay higher prices per gallon, such as 4.00 dollars per gallon, times 60 equals: $240.

To a certain degree, you can control your own usage and therefore how much more you pay for fuel. What you can't control, and affects individuals the most when the fuel prices increase are the extra cost of transporting everything you buy, and the income for people who depend on fuel as part of their business. The extra cost of transportation eventually gets added to the cost of goods and the added expense affects the profits of the small and independent business person (like that shop that makes the best fresh donuts!).
