Between the wife and I we make about 85,000 a year before taxes....

We have not changed one thing in the last four years concerning buying habits... We picked up no additional debt, haven’t changed our 401 K contributions....basically have not changed anything concerning our day to day living expenses.... Oh’ we both a 2 % raise each of the last three years....

I can tell you without a doubt... We are much tighter financially today than ever before....

Insurance, fuel, food, basic goods have skyrocketed in price... We are feeling the pinch...

Same here; the inflation that is denied by the government is eating away our paychecks. The same government that fudges the inflation numbers to suppress entitlement increases is chock-full of Democrats pushing to increase the minimum wage to deal with...inflation.
