Economic progression

Economic progression... falling off the economic cliff.
Same income... higher prices... inflation out of control. 
The biggest culprit... fuel and gasoline prices which adversely affect everything. 

The progression...
Cutting back on premium foods... steak, crab, shrimp, etc.
Cutting back on eating out.
Eliminating big purchasing items.
Cutting out wants in favor of needs.
Less travel to go places.
Steak became pork, which became chicken, which became hot dogs.
Premium Snacks are eliminated. 
Cutting back on everything.

Economic woes from covid was just the beginning. 
The old saying seems more relevant today... Only two classes will remain, the rich & the poor... The middle class is being pushed out of existence.

All the time the government and politicians focus on issues for their own agendas,  rather than focusing on the issues that affect the whole country... fuel prices and inflation. After all, they are inflation proof at our expense.
