Guest P. owensby Posted June 16, 2011 Posted June 16, 2011 The problem is that since 2008 gas has doubled in price and every good or service requiring trucking has risen significantly as well and we are now talking about a serious percentage of people's income. Also energy prices to heat and cool your home have also risen signficatly. So now people are barely getting by if getting by at all. All of this hurts the middle class to some degree and the lower class gets hammered. But alas, no urgency to do a darn thing about any of it. As a matter of fact some politicians feel that gas should be $10 a gallon. I bet at that level you will only see champagne and cavier floaters on the river because they haven't been affected by higher prices like the rest of us.
