WE CANNOT LIVE WITOUT OIL... WE ARE TOO DEPENDENT


This past couple of days have been horrible. There are a lot of people who have lost their job; my neighbor who depended on his job to pay for his house now has to depend on the people that rent the other part of his house. He has to wait next to the mail box each month because he has to wait for his monthly unemployment check. I have noticed that anyone at this point of this crisis can get fired and cant support support the household.



Now I don’t waste as much money as before on what I wanted I have learned that money is really valuable in this crisis and that I need to save as much as possible. The money that I get from my work I save it and try not to waste too much. Every time that I have to get from one place to another I always travel by car, for me it is more comfortable than any other transportation. But this oil crisis is driving me crazy the gas is too expensive and sometimes I cant afford it. I have to buy gas because it is a necessity; I have to set my wants aside. Now I can’t go and buy the pair of shoes that I wanted because I have to save that money to buy gas. Elasticity plays a really big role in this economic problem because now that prices are higher I have to buy the products that I need, but I will buy the brand that is not as expensive as the one I am used to.
