Try being in college and in an economically depressed area.
I go to Wright State in Ohio and gas is a very big part of my monthly expenditures since I have to drive to work and school. 2-3 miles here and there do add up even when you do configure your trips to maximize your time and resources.
I look at when I go grocery shopping...a two pound bag of Lemons (I know har har) at Krogers down the street costs $3.99 per bag. At the WPAFB Commissary its $2.99. And that's a 25% savings but still thats at cost but not counting DeCa's 5% percent surcharge
What hurts me the most is I usually work 30 plus hours go to school full time and yet I barely scrape by because my wage, a little under eight bucks doesn't go that far anymore because my cost of living increase has gone up20-40 percent depending on the item or service I need.
Its not just the subprime, farmers, elderly people that are being screwed out by high gas its your children and the youth of this country - nothing will ever go back down. who knows 50 years from now I'll be paying 10 bucks for that lousy bag of lemons and only 60 years prior from that point (1990s) it would only cost me two at the most.
I'm starting to think that Ron Paul has a point with putting us back on gold or silver standard...fiat currency is for the birds.
