Anyone else feel like stocking up on food because of gas prices?
Half my family are truck drivers, it takes about $500 a day in fuel for them to run their rigs with the cost of diesel (rigs average about 4-6 miles a gallon!). I've heard gas might go up to $6/7 (i know it sounds ridiculous, but 2 years ago so did $3). I feel like stocking up on food because it seems like the government isn't going to do anything about it. What does everyone think?
Yeah.. somehow I doubt the rising cost of gas is a conspiracy theory of food chains wanting to raise their prices.....
Just so you know, the price of petrol (gas) in London is currently US$ 9.23 a gallon.
If you want to stock up on non-perishables like canned food and bottled water and have the storage space, why not - you just have to weigh up whether it's better to spend the money now in case the price keeps rising, or to keep that money earning interest in your bank. Tough decision, I agree.
To be fair (and I don't like being fair to your president because he is rarely fair to anyone other than his friends), I don't think there is a great deal the government can do about it.
