our gas, food, clothing, and services. Are all these items going to get more expensive this year?

Tech jobs worry me, so much of it is getting outsourced it's kinda crazy. Get a snow plowing business, can't outsource snow to India.
Economics, so long as people are willing to pay at those prices.. companies will continue to charge at those prices - they have no reason to lower pricing. Unfortunately in SoCal the laws of Supply and Demand are skewed compared to like.. Mississippi.

Things never get cheaper.
I was in the furniture business for 20 years. You can gauge the economy by looking at the furniture industry. Its an extra, not a necessity. In 1991 it took a dip as did the economy and bounced back a year or two later. In 2000 it took a big nosedive and has to this day, not come back. 6 + years. Countless businesses closed down.
Don't count on an upswing until the President gets changed and our world gets a little more stable. 2008
Good Luck.

The cost of living goes up every year. But recently Mother Nature struck a blow at some citrus farmers. This will have an impact, but to what proportion, I don't know.
During Christmas I had a great time visiting with my sister in Chino Hills. I had my nails done at a salon where I was charged $14. In Idaho I pay $60 for acrylics. Pedicures are almost non-existent. No competition here.

I sure hope not. Gas is expensive enough.
