The cost of gas goes up drastically like this, it becomes the "driving force" behind generalized inflation because the cost of trucking goods, fueling tractors, etc... will be added into costs.

I heard news of the car radio that a free food program for the homeless was closing down here in California. The Program Director said that the program was actually serving a majority of working poor and elderly that simply couldn't afford buying food and other basic survival needs on fixed incomes or low wages plus the high cost now for commuting back and forth to work.

What concerns me is those line graphs that show spikes in speculation. We have got to get these greed money grubbing stockbrokers out of the middle of our oil transactions. It is hurting Americans and its time to put some hurt on them right back.
