Diesl pricing
Gary, diesel up here is about 1.18/litre, been there for about 3 months. Gas just surpassed it in the last couple of weeks. Funny thing when I was a kid and made 50 bucks a week gas was 80 cents a gallon. Now 30+ years later making 2k a week and gas 5 bucks a gallon and like you I'm pissed. Those old pontiacs got the same gas mileage back then as they do now. I read a paper one time that a loaf of bread costs less now in comparison to your overall income than in the 60's. Paper stated if you asked the average person if they would like everything price frozen for say 30 years, the overwhelming majority would vote no. Yet only a few years down the road they would complain that their standard of living went down. Human nature I guess.
