Re: Fuel prices
Hong, I'm not happy about it other than the fact I'm now driving a diesel doing about 55-60mpg rather than my 25-30mpg astra.
It also makes the game of 'how many miles to a full tank' more interesting, although last month, I lost by about 150 miles....agressive with the right foot a little? My personal opinion of this is that I can understand why, but I don't agree with the way they are implementing it. When fuel prices rise, companies have no choice but to increase charge on haulage, which means increased prices in shops, with the increased VAT and probably increased prices to protect profit margins, with most people not getting a pay increase, and some with a pay cut, I can't see how this is really fair. Now, I know they have an income and an expenditure, and at the minute, it doesn't balance, but there are other means, and despite this generating a huge source of income, that is at the expense of a lot of people that can ill afford it. Me for PM! |

The worrying thing is that it reduces the amount of money people have in their pockets, so spending drops. If spending drops then less goods and services get bought, which means people employed to supply those goods and services are made redundant, which means less money in peoples pockets, so spending drops. See where this is going? The only way to recovery in the economy is to get people spending again. |
