Once again they are saying we are HEADED for a recession... how many of you think we are already there? Seems to me we should be hearing that we are headed for a depression at least some days. biz.yahoo.com/ap/080402/bernanke_congress.html

Oh heck yeah we are all getting the shaft. I mean seriously just one look at the gas prices vice the cost of living. The gas prices are what's killing us because it's costing the price of EVERYTHING to go up but were having to live off of peanuts. I consider myself lucky because my husband is in the military and we have the commissary to shop at but for everyone else its bad even the cost at the commissary is the same price as it is out in town almost. It's ridiculous why are we getting charged so much but our government has enough money to send aid out to other countries? Oh I could go on and on.

I can't believe it gas prices going up AGAIN!!!! It's getting to the point people are going to have to work at home to be able to afford to live my gosh it's getting so expensive who can afford to go back and forth to work with the way the gas prices are? It's only a matter of time that everyone except doctors and lawyers are going to go under and the government acts like these stimulus checks are going to help boost the economy I am rofl help my rear it's barely going to get people to break even if that yeah the extra money is nice but seriously what is a measly 600.00 going to do for a year with these prices sky rocketing? I am seriously frustrated with all of this. Not only that why are we paying all this for gas/oil from foreign countries when we have 10x that here? Oh I am so mad I could just scream! Thanks for letting me vent lol.
