    I can't afford to go to work anymore either. It is a 35 mile drive one way, min. wage & part time. Gas in Cedar Rapids, IA on Tue. was $3.29 & in Iowa City, IA it is #3.39.
    Not looking forward to what the price will be in July when I will be going to northwest Kansas for my brother's 50th wedding anniversary. God help us all.

    Maybe we should consider an AGOG party, A Gas Over Gas, unite and march on DC. It worked for the TEA Party.
