Record high diesel prices threaten domino effect to other goods | National | thecentersquare.com
(The Center Square) – Record high diesel fuel prices are yet another driver of rising costs for Americans, and those costs could get even higher this year.
Diesel gas prices hit another record high Thursday at $5.79 per gallon, according to AAA. 
That is a spike from $5.57 a month ago and much higher than the average of $3.22 the same time last year.
Diesel, though, is used to transport all kinds of goods, not just food. 
Right now, businesses are paying more than ever to transport via diesel trucks while the market also deals with a truck driver shortage.
...Experts say higher energy costs will only make that worse if they remain elevated for an extended period of time..."
