Homeowners insurance and auto insurance up, gas up, food up - and you have to eat the veggies on the way to your car before they go rotten.

I feel your pain. Our house has decreased in value by at least 35-40,000 and my taxes went up by a couple of hundred a year. That was not enough so our city has a vote in Nov to raise them again. My guess is it will be the first time we even got a unanimous result.
