How is anyone going to be able to afford anything if inflation continues?

I just paid 6.47 a gallon for gas. And it literally made me have a panic attack. That's about 30 cents for every mile i drive. How is anyone going to afford anything? That's $7 a day just to get my kids to and from preschool. Salaries aren't going up at the rate that the housing, gas, car, food, daycare, insurance, activities, travel are. I live a very average life and id say I'm very middle class. I don't impulse buy. I love bargains. 1x a year i try to visit 1 family member since my family lives around the nation (except 1 out of country i haven't even visited). I don't care about flashy things, like going over the top for my kids bdays. We barely every eat out, maybe 1x a month max. And i feel like we've been pretty good about saving and investing in the past. But all of these price increases have literally got me in a panic. How will anyone be able to afford anything? When will the line be drawn where we all get out priced?
