GAS Prices - have increased nearly every facet of my budget -- Energy price inflation is killing us!

Gas price increases affect everything, and our wages have not increased to compensate. The result is either less put away to savings each month or more credit card debt. I used to be able to save a good chunk every month, now as I analyse my new budget numbers for the household, I have noticed nearly every cost has gone up significantly since the gas prices have risen. We are being fleeced of our value through inflation and we sit idly by and take it. Just one reason why foreclosures and delinquent house payments are skyrocketing. If this does not turn around soon.....
