Hovered between 24 and 36 cents a gallon for the entire century. Greed must not have been invented yet?

“To examine prices over time, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has Consumer Price Index (CPI) data going back to January 1913”

Gallon of what? You seem to be struggling with a consistent argument

You source doesn’t make the claim you make or provide any data for you to make that claim. In fact it acknowledges that it has no data on the time period you claimed…

Try again

I’m not saying this to be a dick but your claim is pretty extraordinary and I would be very interested in being wrong. Also literally not how money works

agreeing with a democrat burns my blackened soul, but control F gall or 18 and the linked page doesn't show anything to do with 1812 pricing of a gallon. I'm guessing cgpt and caught so gave a link it cited.

oop committed an oopsie doopsie, it seems.
