4) Work to get us out of the wars in the Middle East, both because that affects the prices directly and also because paying for that shit is why they're printing money like crazy right now driving up the prices of *everything*.

5) Other than that, just get used to higher prices because worldwide demand is going up and not stopping. I guess if you agitated for the government to nuke China and India back to the Stone Age that would help a lot.
