I went from spending $400 per month on gas to spending $600 in about two months time. I did not get a raise. Where did that extra money come from? At this rate of energy inflation (because my electricity and natural gas will go up as well), who will go bankrupt first? Me, or GM?
Oh, wait...I can't really file bankruptcy anymore, can I? But GM can. That's good for business.
Sorry, TW. I contribute to the economy. If I have to spend my disposable income on fuel, then I don't spend it on other things, and the economy suffers. If I get a raise to offset the increase, then my company's prices go up, and hence inflation, and the economy suffers.
