Gas prices!!!!!

Tweet

I'm sure I'm not the only one who is down right upset about the cost of gas. Futhermore it is not just the gas prices that are hurting our pockets, but the ever increasing gap between the gas prices and minimum wage. The gas prices contiue to rise, but our checks stay the same. On the news it was broadcasted that this past week truck drivers across the nation were going on strike. With desiel costs (in my area) already at $4/gal truck drivers are noticing sometimes they get more money in their pocket by staying home! In other words they spend more on gas than they get in their checks. Anyways, this past week the truck drivers were supposed to go on strike, like I said, in an attempt to lower gas prices in a domino effect. Because they were saying they were going to stop driving until gas was lowered, and if they stopped driving then products would stop being delivered - such as groceries, items to stores, even gas itself, in essence the economy would come to a halt. The thing is, it seemed everywhere I turned I saw massive amounts of 18-wheelers last week. Please put in your thoughts and comments (and gas prices, lol). Truck drivers too!!!
