The rising cost of gas, food, and other goods has made life harder for nearly 2/3rds of Americans, according to a CBS News Poll. 66% of respondents said higher prices have been “difficult or a hardship” for their families. 26% said higher prices were an “inconvenience”, while 8% said it had no effect on their lives. Overall, 63% rated the U.S. economy as ‘Bad’, even though 56% rated the local job market as ‘Good’.
How have higher prices affected your family? Have you had to cut back?
