Bad economy? Lets raise prices, that should fix it!

Nothing that is going on makes any sense at all. I just got my latest power bill and about choked on what I saw. Even though we cut our energy usage in half our bill was double what it was last year! It costs $50 to fill up my car, when a few years ago it only cost $10. In the grocery store, generic cheese costs the same as the expensive cheese and I saw bacon for $7! A can of tobacco that a year ago cost me $7 now costs $30!

In my field there are 50 applicants for every job and everyone else is dead broke... yet prices are skyrocketing. Did I mention you have to drive 30 minutes away to get to the jobs? Crap, that will cost my entire paycheck just to get there!

WTF is going on?

in a whiny voice "Folks are forced to buy less, lets raise prices; Oh crap, we are selling even less and might go out of business!" I am no economist, but this makes about as much sense as parents who spank their kids to make them stop crying!

Big business and government say spend or fail, mamma and my dwindling youth say save or fail! I say it makes no sense even though self professed experts say it does. Whatever! If anyone really understood it and actually gave a crap (at the same time), we wouldn't be in this situation.

Oh yeah, Ron Paul understands and he cares... awe crikey, I forget, he is a terrorist. Never mind.

I say it is a conspiracy! It is almost as though we are being set up to fail and "they" are trying to make as much money as "they" can before it all goes down the crapper. Probably because "they" know that the aliens and zombies are about to take over.
