American families brace for potential budget strain as OECD forecasts U.S. inflation to surge to 4.2% in 2026, driven by soaring energy prices from Middle East conflict. Gas prices skyrocket, with national average at $3.98 per gallon, Utah at $4.17, and Saint George at $4.22. Diesel fuel jumps 50% since fighting escalated, impacting supply chains and everyday costs. Inflation drops to 1.7% by 2027, but conflicts duration remains a significant uncertainty.
