Our Economy Today
Our Economy Sucks! Things are tough all around for everyone right now. The prices of groceries don’t seem to be going down at all much.
Some kids won’t even be able to keep taking some of the college classes they want to, as most students try to work part time to pay for their classes, so either you give up the classes to work when their is hours available, or you give up the work for classes, which your really not able to do, cause you need to pay for them. Parents are not able to dish out as much money to help anymore, as they need to keep some in hand to make their house payments.
Not many can afford to live on their own now days, they have to stay living at home, or they have to make sure they have a couple roommates, and pray they keep their jobs, so that they also can pay their part of the rent. Some have to give up their privacy, some even sleeping on a couch, just to be able to have a roof over their head and food to eat.
How can the price of bread be $1.39, for cheap simple wheat bread, when you can buy a cake mix for $1.00, would like someone to explain that to me. Then you get the fat from the cake mix, but cheaper to eat. Pretty bad to the point that I feel some older people eat things that they should not as it is cheaper. How is a parent suppose to feed their newborn when a small can of formula cost as much as it does. You find that you go without, even just have pancakes for dinner a couple times a week, as it lasts and fills you up.
I can only hope that things get better real soon, as I feel many a good people will have a bad downfall due to it, and I myself would hate to see that happen to anyone. Things are tough, that is for sure, and I am one also who has own struggles in own ways, but I have not given up hope that things will turn around for the better soon.
To anyone who reads this, and can relate, and understand, I feel for you, as I feel for many who may not read this, but I know you are out there, and I send my blessings to each and every one, in hopes that things turn around for all of us very soon.
