I’m not sure how this is around the rest of the U.S., but I heard a little while ago from a Deputy Sheriff that gas was going to go up to $6.00 a gallon after midnight. Now considering that gas here in nowhere Alabama as of right now averages $3.70 that’s close to double in a price jump.

Now doing the math, if you make $5.85 (minimum wage) and are fortunate enough to work 40 hrs, you’ll roughly have after taxes $200.00. Now lets say that they keep the rationing at 10 gallons and you’ll need to fill up weekly that’s $240.00

Alright so you get paid weekly so that’s $800.00 a month minus the $240 equals $560. That’s 30% of your monthly income or 30% of your weekly income.

$5.85? Our state’s minimum wage is $8.07! And it’s supposed to get to $8.50 sometime soon... Why is your state so low?

Hmm, maybe if the gas prices get REAL high people might start walking and actually get some exercise every so often.
