Answer 6

Whether one's living is above all that or having to deal with higher prices everyday, higher gas prices have an effect either purely psychologically or directly in your pocketbook.  One one hand, if  you are driving around, you can't help but notice how much the price of gasoline has risen.  Practically every street corner has a huge sign reminding you that it will cost more to fill your tank than the last time. And every news report mentions how the higher cost of gasoline is affecting other commodities such as corn and even milk.  Even if you can afford it, you ask your self why is this happening and what can be done to stop these runaway price rises.  And, many people will decide to cut-back on other spending such as that morning latte at Starbucks or a movie out.  

And for many people, the higher cost is felt directly.  If someone has a vehicle that gets only 8 or 10 mph and has to drive 25 or more miles per day, they know the higher cost.  If they haven't had a pay raise that has kept up with these higher costs, they are probably having a tough time making ends meet.  And for many people they can't just sell their vehicle for something more fuel efficient or earn more money. They are stuck.  They are feeling trapped with little relief in sight.  

Yes, everyone is feeling the effects of these higher costs.

Answer 7

Yep!  As the price creeps up each day, college for my kids and my retirement both get further away, until they will eventually be unreachable.  Sad, but true.
