Question: But aren't all retirees, not just those planning to, doing the same?

Being retired now 21 years this Sept. We have had to make some serious and interesting downward changes the last 2 years in our spending and travel budgets.

With Gas up 110+%, food items up anywhere from 9+ to 26+% depending on the item, along with growing spot item food shortages.

I expect we'll see a lot more late night accidental Restaurants fires after closing.

#2 Yeah I retired in 2002 and Biden can stick all this in his ear.
I have reduced my spending.

#3 When you look at Demokrat policy through the prism of any positive impact on the entire American people as incidental to the empowerment and enrichment of themselves, it all makes perfect sense. Right on cue the loyal opposition will deploy the chaff and countermeasures so clearly outlined in the article from CTH last year:

#5 This is serious. Truckers especially independent truckers are parking their rigs. 70% of grocery products are delivered by trucks. I see FEDEX drivers running up fuel bills of at least 150 dollars at a time and diesel 250. Adding on delivery charges that will never go away as long as stores will pay. Motor home $2000 dollars to fill up. one side tank of dump truck 250 one day and 550 the next day for same side tank. I say again. Independent truckers are parking their rigs. Not worth it anymore to drive. They might as well have put a terrorist in office as president.
