the only thing now in this world that is free is the air that you breathe everything cost so much that a poor person can not afford to live.It cost when you are born and it cost when you are living and it cost when you pass.who is getting all the benifits from us be born ,living and than dieing not us.The free blood from the umbilical cord after haveing a baby use to be free but now it cost even to have it saved as a friend of mine put it what is happening to this world.Just like the goverment checks for disability when they go up every year so does the cost of living so you are not really saving any thing the more you get the more everything cost.So I was wondering what your opinion on this You tell me where all the money goes.

I don't know. I wish I had an answer for you. Maybe move to Montana where it might be cheaper to live? lol. Maybe cut back on the vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup? Move in with a neighbor to share costs? One good thing is that they don't tax your disability income.

you made me choke with laughter. the money is with us. those who have more money to provide these services are the beneficiaries of these funds. e.g it cost so much to be a doctor and if one is able to become a doctor the salary and conditions of service are different from that of other services. in this world the rich can spend and save but the average can't save, it's just enough for survival. the poor can't even get enough for his needs how more to save. this is because the rich have the best and add value to it, so the average maybe able to afford and has nothing left after the purchase but the poor can't afford it, therefore lives in misery. therefore the rich gets richer and the poor becomes poorer.

To greedy people. I was having the discussion with a friend this morning about the price of gas. It has gone up $2/gallon since my last raise. My lp for my house has gone from $250/500 gal to over $500/500 gal. My wage increases have not even come close to the cost of living raises. If Exxon can profit billions then the gas prices are high for no reason at all. Since gas prices are up so high everything else has to go up because it costs more to make it, use it, store it or whatever. I think our government should do something about it. They won't because they are all someway involved in the oil market. I think any government offical should forfeit there involvement with any market such as oil while in office.
