Just kidding, that was a fake headline. This was the real headline: Gasoline prices are falling fast.

That may be so, but the graph released today by The Wall Street Journal doesn't particularly support this factoid.

In fact, gasoline prices have barely budged for several months now, and gasoline is incredibly more expensive than what is was in February, 2016 ($2.28 / gallon today vs $1.69 then).
