Who isn’t tired of gas prices?? While I have a home office and don’t have to choose between buying gas so I can get to work or food for my family, a lot of folks aren’t as lucky.
My Mom for instance. She’s a senior citizen (sorry Mom I really meant a young citizen), who lives on a very fixed income. Today she calls me as she’s upset, she had to buy gas for her car to get to her doctor appointments and now can’t afford to pay for her meds she needs.
Something is very wrong when a person has to choose between eating, getting prescriptions they need, medical care or even keeping a roof over their head, simply because gas prices have cut deeply into their budgets.
It ticks me off more when I see reports of the oil companies showing billions and billions in profit. Something is seriously wrong with this picture.
Why hasn’t the government stepped in to at least cap the prices? I hear a bunch of yak-yak, but I don’t see any action being taken.
Maybe its just me, but it just ticks me off that folks would even have to choose between necessities (food, medical, rent, etc..) and gas.
