with the rise in the price of gas and the rise of food prices.how does our elders continue to pay for food,medicines,and gas.where does the cost stop ?we need to bring to light how this is effecting our senoirs. this summer we are supposed to start raising the min. wage so that it becomes beneficial for people to earn and make a living but with cost of fuel rising everyday ,we stand to lose more in the long run than actually achieving a life. what are your thoughts on how our economy will survive and what do you think we could do in providing our senoirs a discount on fuel. do you think raising our national min. wage going to help us if our own government will not assist in controlling the price of gas.

I agree, but we are certainly caught. People will continue to buy gas no matter what because they need it to get to work in order to make the money to pay for the gas. It is just and ever going cycle with no end. Do not hold a hope for any assistance from the government. cheers,
