And it Goes UP UP and UP
So the price of gas over night went up to $2.99 from $2.64 at 11pm last night! The bike is polished and ready to go. more later
Past, Present, Future. . . .
Gas:
1930's 27 cents
1990's $1.27
Summer of 2005 2.23
Summer of 2005 after the Hurrican $2.46
2010--most likly $3.50 or more
1905
Ketchup, Sunnyside, .25/3 bottles
Sugar, granulated, .15/3.5 lbs
Bacon, .12/lb
1935
Ketchup, Ideal brand, .27/2 lb jar
Beef, ground, .25/2 lbs
1995
Bacon, Farmland, .99/lb
Beef, ground, 1.49/lb
2005
Ketchup, Heinz, 1.39/14 ounce bottle
Beef, ground, 3.29/lb
Everyone knows that as the years move on prices go up, but really for why? Is it really that necessary for the maker to increase the rate so much that many families have to get yet another job just to afford the basic needs? I mean really where is that getting our society? We are already SO caught up in the mind set of having more is better. There are hundreds of thousands of people walking around just waiting to show off their newest toy. Do we really need to encourage people to continue to become more selfish and conceded? Again whats that doing for our society? At any rate, prices are going up up and up, so sit back and be the average American and take it. If your feeling the need to complain about prices take a moment and look at the price for gas in other countries and remember that their prices are for a liter of gas not a gallon! Try a long walk see where it gets you and more importantly Enjoy!
Wishing I lived somewhere where I was forced to walk everywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers
