Running on e

I went to town today to mail a few letters and walked past one of the gas stations with a crazy line.  Thank goodness I refilled my cooking gas tank last week (even though I had to go to 3 gas stations to find it). Even then the price had gone up 24% since I last filled it in April. Inflation is a big problem here. Everything from gas to eggs to flour to school fees has risen. And, given that the unemployment rate is somewhere around 40%, it's a pretty fair statement that incomes haven't risen in step.
