As President R.R. asked, "Are you better off than you were a year ago?"
Gasoline prices have taken $150.00 worth of food off the table if you use only 20 gallons a week. What if you are on a fixed income? Twenty gallons a week is not uncommon if you have two or three doctor visits, shopping of any kind, going to church or to visit your friends and family.
Then there may be clothing to buy for your children, electricity and natural or propane gas along with fuel oil for heating.
The food list is not gourmet! Dry beans, rice, bread, milk, apples, carrots, potatoes, hamburger bacon, eggs, bananas.
