so is are all of you feeling the increase in the cost of...everything over the past month.

I left for europe, gas was 3.10 a gallon. came back and it was 3.60.
Food prices went from somewhat ridiculous to...i couldnt afford to buy myself food while my parents where gone.
looking at prices for everything in the stores..i swear it jumped like 10% in a month.

I went to pick up some medication, $250 deductible, $100 more then last year. And our insurance went from 1500$ a month to $2000 a month.

then i get my registration for my 330 today, went up 20 bucks from last year. what the fuck?

inflation sucks

**edit**

even the price of toilet paper went up. christ. I cant wipe my ass without thinking about how expensive it is.

all of it is because of gas prices. when the gas prices go up, the price of everything els has to go up aswell because it costs more to ship.

if bush would get off his ass and do something about gas prices instead of enjoying the money he gets out of his oil wells, the economy wouldnt be the shit hole it is today.

That's part of life, we are one of the richest countries in the world, with us spending about 3 billions a week on the war. The country has to make money somehow. I think that if we don't pull out soon, we're gonna end up like some of the 3rd world countries in Africa, No one can afford to buy even food so people will start starving to death.

im pretty sure that already happens.

Heh richest maybe, but unfortunately most of the money is in the higher percentiles hands..not the majorities.
Might be wrong there, not wanting this to get political, but you cant tell me you dont have less money in your hands right now.

oh well, ups and downs thats life, i just hope this down isnt too long
