It projects a general price rise of 2 to 2.5 percent, while northeastern governors claim 5 to 6 percent inflation. FEA notes lower income groups would bear a bigger share, but direct payments and tax cuts offset most households except those earning over 24 500 annually. Regional impacts vary, with Mountain States.hit hardest and East South Central least. Rationing could cap gasoline at about 36 gallons monthly if shortages persist. coupons might trade at about 1 20 a gallon, potentially raising pump cost for heavy users.
