Entire US economy and infrastructure is built around low gas prices. While it’s certainly going to be great for prices to start going up forcing a reduction in consumption, it will have a profound economic effect on the people in US.

Deliveries are largely done by trucks as opposed to trains, so prices of goods will be shooting up. These are just couple of examples of the cost of living problems US is about to be facing in the near future.
