The Cost of Living is going up, but My Paycheck is Staying Pretty Much the Same...

I will get quickly to my point, as time is of the essence:

Strange how our government and our employers go about their business, allowing price hikes, and in some cases, drastic ones, while we, the little guys, get our 'cost of living' raises which is supposed to, in their eyes, and in the end, equal the price hikes which are skyrocketing out of control...if you can figure it out, let me know, because I'm becoming frustrated with the whole situation...I'll finish this little rant in a future post.

Thanks for listening,
