Gas price pain grows for seniors and high earners
An Associated Press-GfK poll shows rising gasoline costs burdening seniors and higher income Americans. About 76 percent of seniors report financial hardship, 63 percent of those earning over 50,000 dollars, and 41 percent overall call the impact serious. Many cut expenses, drive less, and delay vacations as prices around 4 dollars a gallon persist. Analysts expect relief, with pump prices potentially dropping up to 40 cents in four weeks.
