I wonder what you all think here?
Where do you think that we're headed as a nation? With the price of gas going up to 3-4-5-6 dollars a gallon. That means that the price of milk is going to go up. The price of eggs are going to go up. Anything that's on a truck, that price is going to go up.
I know that my wife's company just said that the cost of service calls have gone up effective yesterday due to the increase of gas prices. Thats' due to the miles that they have to drive everyday to get from one hospital to another.
But that means that people aren't going to go anywhere for vacation, or day trips because they can't afford the gas.
Then factor in that there are now millions of people that are homeless. The ones that didn't leave, and the ones that left don't have a home to come back too. And when you add in that I would guess 60-80% might not have a job to come back too. The unemployment rates are going to go up as well.
It makes you wonder what's going to happen to the economy.
Do you think that I'm worring too much? I'm starting to wonder about what home oil cost are going to be... Yea, we locked in a price back in July. But from what I'm hearing, thats "Subject to Change." I wonder if the heating oil companies would just go out of business if they can't... I'm going to have a newborn right in the middle of winter.
Maybe I'm stressing over nothing. Maybe I'm not. I'm just wondering what you guys are thinking...
All I do know is that the price of gas isn't just the price of gas. It's the price of anything that moved by equipment that runs on gas.
