They said it was because the first time in however many years there was no inflation. Then I wish they would tell me why EVERYTHING costs more money?

How about welfare and food stamps...did they get increases?
I think so, especially if you count all dem "stim-lus chex"...which is why the veterans and retirees are stuck in place.
If we really want to see obama's numbers drop, then a military volunteer boycott would make him kick in the draft...then there will be lots of pissed off folks.
