I'll just laugh life is to short.
Life is hard?!
How unfair!
What we really need is the Government to come in and make life easy!
40 million illegal aliens.
Why the barf alert? Like it or not, what’s portrayed in the article is true.
Pinging the great and mighty stoat.
You think the marshall would give a rats a$$ ?
To sum it up:
REPUBLICANS ARE IN THE WHITE HOUSE
Middle class, poor, women, minorities hardest hit
(how’d I do?)
2000-2001. Gee, wasn't that that at the end of the Clinton Era and before Bush took full control?
LMAO!!!
Yes, Democrat presidential politics is in the air, and the AP and the rest of that socialist “mainstream” newsroom ilk are just getting warmed up.
>> And 7-Eleven says its grocery sales have jumped... Shoppers can’t afford to load up at the supermarket and are going to the most convenient places
Right.
My dollar isn’t going so far, so I’m going to “stretch” it by shopping at the high-priced place instead of the cheap place.
Okay festus, I’m with you now; I’m laughing out loud!
I wonder if these vacuous twits take a class in J school to learn to lie like this. Try cancelling cell phones/cable tv/internet/ and ride the bus for starters. Simple f*ers. Make me wanna puke.

The average family of four is spending anywhere from $7 to $10 extra a week — $40 more a month — on groceries alone
I'm guessing his paycheck is about $10.
I don’t see any reason for laughing here
I guess the old “homeless” canard has become too cliched even for an AP scumbag like Anne D’Innocenzio. So let’s try to convince the middle class that they’re miserable. Yeah, that’s the ticket.
The only thing to do now is to raise taxes! Put the middle incomer in the poverty level. yeah, that’s the ticket!
Go to DiTech and get a $600K home loan for $1,000/month, then skip the credit card payments.
Pay the driver's license fee but skip applying for a green card.
It's rough out there. ;)
food or cable tv?
Big government that wants to 'help' you is the very same one that taxes you to death so that you think you need their help!
There is an answer to this problem...VOTE for small government candidates.
I have to say there are a few posts here that makes FR look bad and feed the DU with ammo for compassionate conservative
Most of the lard asses I see can afford to cut back a little bit—and that includes their obese (yet “hungry”) offspring. Of course, instead of shopping for nutritious food, they will shop for the cheap crap at the Dollar store. Of course, they will still find a way to buy lottery tickets and cigarettes at $7 a pack (thanks to Liberals).
Remember, according to Jane Fonda: “Poor people are poor because nuclear power plants are polluting the air.”
I called the local Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse this afternoon to see if I could get a reservation for a table of four, they had nothing before 9:30 PM either tonight or tomorrow. Maybe these economic geniuses at AP could explain this phenomenon.
“While economists debate whether the country is headed for a recession, some say the financial stress is already the worst since the last downturn at the start of this decade.”
This author needs a history lesson on “tough times.” Check back to the Carter years. Yeesh!
