The economy's FINE!

Found on Fark, this article makes me want to scream. It sums up everything about why this supposedly BOOMING Bush economy really doesn't mean dick to those of us who are normal* people just living our day-to-day lives. There are a LOT of us who don't have much savings and who can't put much - if any - away. We don't invest in the market. The fluctuations of this, that and the other don't do anything much to our lifestyle. Gigantic profits on the S&P Index don't really do much to us.

Grocery prices do.

A gallon of milk is up to $4.50 here. That's $1.50 from about a year, year-and-a-half ago. 4 (minimum) gallons a week @+1.50... $24/month just in milk, EXTRA. Ethanol isn't the answer either, you assclowns.

ARGH.
