1. You're gas is at $1.79? Sign me up!
Edited on Sun May-14-06 05:33 PM by racaulk
It's at least a dollar more than that in my neck of the woods!

Seriously though, you're right. The nickel-and-diming of ordinary Americans is insane. How are we supposed to make it in this economy? The Repukes in charge say the economy is great, I guess because all they see is Wall Street. I'm not seeing the thriving economy that they're seeing.

And Heaven forbid you carry a balance on a revolving credit card account with a variable interest rate! Those rates are creeping up too! Just check your credit card bill from month to month...
