Although oil prices are getting higher, I think food prices are more alarming....

[QUOTE="sunburned, post: 6526999, member: 30336"] How does this apply to food and gas getting more expensive? What modern conveniences are we going to lose? Electricity? I don't see the price of coal going up, nor nuclear power or hydroelectric power. Cell phone plans and internet won't get more expensive. I already have 2 computers so I'm covered there. My cars run fine and don't require any service from anyone but me (speaking of which, why haven't motor oil prices gone up at all?). My house isn't going to collapse or all my electronic devices spontaneously explode. Remember, the last depression was in the 20's and 30's, so they didn't have 'modern' conveniences to begin with :poke: My family has a boat and lives 2 minutes away from the Potomac River. If it gets that bad, we'll start eating fish more often. We also live in the woods, so I'll learn to hunt. Not really a big deal. Plus I work for the government/DOD, so I don't really see my salary going anywhere, and my parents are retired from public school teaching and will get retirement pay plus social security the rest of their lives. They also have our house, cars, and whatever else paid off. I think we're good for the long haul. [/QUOTE]
