20 Price Increases That Are Breaking America’s Middle Class Families

(Thomas Dishaw) American families are under the gun. Whether you are employed, unemployed, or underemployed you’re not alone, because millions of families are struggling in the U.S. With the cost of basic goods and services rising at an alarming rate many households struggle to supply the basic necessities some of us take for granted.

Under the Obama Administration taxes are increasing faster than anytime in history, with Americans paying more in taxes than on food, clothing and housing combined. Hard working middle class families will continue to evaporate and essentially be extinct if this cycle continues.

Whether you realize it or not we have all been affected by the California drought in one way or another. Watching your food and water prices increase, and in some case double due to lack of rainfall, is taking a toll on American families. With increased costs forcing tough decisions at the dinner table many consumers have been forced to make unhealthy eating choices, essentially doing their grocery shopping at dollar stores where healthy selections are far and few.

We as consumers need to be smarter, vote with our dollars, and continue to find ways to become more self sufficient. Growing our own food to combat the increasing prices, exploring alternate energy options, or going off grid and heating our homes with wood again are just some of the ways we can make a difference that will help our financial situation and most of all our way of life….More Here
