I have had more and I have had less over my lifetime. I don't know if that is normal. I tried to learn to adapt to the changes as best I could figure out. I will say though, that I think I have always had enough, I mean in that, my basic needs were met and I didn't ever have to go without food, although I did have to stretch some budgets till they were see-through from time to time.

The good prices are horrid. I hear folks talk about it a little, but then, what can you do, you either buy it or you don't. I would totally hate to be responsible for feeding even a medium sized family these days. I don't know how people do it.

Add on top of that, employers can't seem to get enough good help and I wonder, what are all those people doing now that are not working? How are they getting by? I don't know the answer to that.
