The "BUSHCO" has given big business the green light to rip of the populace. the latest example is in the cost of fuel price increase for transport. If a product was transported 3,000 miles by trailer truck the act. increase in price would be (max) $900 per load in fuel cost-probably closer to $600 since 2004! if you only had a 10000 items(avg) groceries=20,000 items; but we'll use a 10000 the increase cost per item would be $o.09 per item. the fact is most items are shipped by rail to a distribution point. usually within 300 miles or less of final destination point. I live within a 100 miles of boston and two different food store chains increased their products up to $.10 last week. and this increase has varied week by week. but always an increase. and wal-mart has increased the price of its brand of coffee by $1.00 in less than 6 months. YOU BET YOUR SWEET ASS I'LL VOTE STRAIGHT DEMOCRAT THIS ELECTION. AND ON THE LOCAL LEVEL -NO TAX BREAKS FOR BUSINESSES!
