I noticed they didn't define what exactly is this problem the American public is wary about.. Was it high costs of something else bothering the public?? I suspect the problem is high gasoline prices and they are looking to the government to help bring the prices down.. I don't believe they know why the cost of gas is going up with all the noise they hear about Iran one day or Nigeria the next. All they know is that the price is going up again..
And here I thought the number one issue in the 2008 election was going to be energy but energy might be the #1 issue sooner than that..
People like to bitch about gasoline prices, so they get a lot of attention, but the home heating bills are the thing that really hurt a lot of people.
