{ "item_title" : "Fuel", "item_author" : [" Michael Roussi "], "item_description" : "Fuel is not a commodity within the cost-of-living framework. It is the transmission layer through which cost moves across every stage of economic activity. It does not sit within the system. It drives the system. From extraction to production, from logistics to consumption, fuel operates as the underlying force that connects all economic movement into a continuous flow. Every price you experience carries fuel within it, whether visible or embedded. This book isolates that reality and reconstructs it as a structural truth rather than a passing observation.Fuel: To Whom It May Concern (Global) does not examine fuel as a market product, nor does it engage in policy critique or price commentary. It repositions fuel as a systemic component whose movement defines the baseline of the cost-of-living framework. When fuel moves, everything moves. When fuel stabilizes, the system stabilizes. The book does not ask what fuel prices should be. It shows what happens when fuel is allowed to transmit volatility unchecked and what happens when that transmission pathway is structurally redesigned.The work follows a precise structural progression. It begins by establishing fuel as a foundational input embedded in all economic layers. It then traces how volatility in global fuel markets enters domestic systems and spreads through production costs, supply chains, and final pricing. The reader is not presented with abstract theories but with a clear system pathway where cost flows from one layer to another, accumulating, amplifying, and embedding itself into the cost-of-living structure.From this foundation, the book transitions into the structural problem. The issue is not volatility itself. The issue is direct exposure. When domestic pricing systems remain directly linked to global price formation, volatility is transmitted instantly and without control. This creates instability across the entire economic structure. The system is therefore not failing because of fuel. It is failing because of how fuel is allowed to move through it.The second half of the book reconstructs the system through a stabilization framework that operates without breaking market interaction. The structure introduces separation between wholesale and retail pricing, the use of a buffer layer to absorb volatility, and a debit-credit balancing mechanism that redistributes price differences over time. These elements do not remove variability. They reorganize it. The system continues to interact with global markets, but the pathway of transmission is controlled, structured, and aligned.The outcome is not theoretical. It is structural. Retail pricing becomes stable. Cost transmission becomes predictable. Economic activity operates within a consistent environment. The volatility that once moved freely across the system is absorbed, recorded, and balanced internally without reaching the consumption layer. Stability is not imposed. It emerges from alignment.This book is not written to persuade. It is written to present a system. It does not argue for change. It shows what the structure becomes when the pathway is redesigned. Fuel remains what it is. The system around it evolves. And when it does, the cost-of-living framework no longer reacts to movement. It operates with it, under control, in alignment, and without disruption.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/825/735/9798257354564_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "35.00", "online_price" : "35.00", "our_price" : "35.00", "club_price" : "35.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
