Last year at this time it was a little more than $0.27 per therm. This year it jumped to more than $0.47 per therm. Who cares about therms? All I know is the cost of the gas increased by 70 percent. Talk about inflation. The current administration needs to pay more attention to this issue than to pie-in-the-sky green new deal ambitions.
