Cost of living, OP/ED........
#19
RE: Cost of living, OP/ED........
I've been living happily without cable (or very good reception either) for about 15 years. I wouldn't include it in the cost of living. But so much is online now that internet access is a necessity. A land line, not so much.

70 years ago food cost more than housing and housing was much, much, smaller per person and of lessor quality even for the rich. The average family had one car not one per driver. Part of what's happening is our increasing requirements.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
