For Kristal, gas prices have risen by about a third in less than a month.
I actually haven't been driving as much, because I almost feel like it's cheaper for me to stay at home.
She says the data shows that U.S. workers have gotten a raise pretty much across the board, but in real terms, a lot of people have actually seen a decrease in pay or, at best, they've gotten a very tiny raise.
Workers are not experiencing some humongous jump in their real wages by any stretch of the imagination.
