start growing your garden now...cause when the price of fuel hits five a gallon the cost of food is going to crushing...there will be plenty of food on the shelves but affording it will be the challenge...
i could be wrong though...
Ha, I think that's about the right-est thing you said..
and it doesn't have to be $5 a gallon to make food costs crushing.. this little uplift here will hurt, the next, in a cpl days will kill..
crushing will soon follow and all that before it gets to that $5 mark..
remember, Egypt started because of food price.. Gaddafi today said he'd give people $400 to buy food if they'd just go home.. the world food bank has been screaming for many a moon at the overprice of food.. lack of supplies and all the starvation going on.. and just think when all that snow from the massive snow storms we had this year melts? and we get all the floods?.. we're talking $5 for a single apple...
-1 in 4 is on food stamps
-countless children only eat once a day, and that's at school.. those are closing for summer soon.. if they don't close due to budget crisis..
-due to budget crisis, we have to cut food stamps and heating oil subsidies.. how will people make up for that when they still have to eat, even though there is no food stamps to buy with AND apples are $7 each?
-due to budget crisis we need to stop footing the bill for the lazy on unemployment

... when grocers can't sell their wares anymore because shipping costs are too much and they've raised everything to unattainable for all but the Rockefeller, what are those lazy,non-working people going to do without the UI check or the food stamps? and how will their kids eat when there is no school in session?
mayhem is coming...
the good news is the top 1% got their tax cut so they should be sending us jobs in 3....2.....1........
