At $4 per gallon, gas prices literally locked the senior citizens inside their homes. The difficult economic times has affected all Americans especially the elders who only have a fixed income.

For their daily expenses, most of the seniors could not simply insert $4 gas in their budgets. Whenever they feel like they have to go somewhere, they just have to carpool or simply find their way towards the bus station.

This is quite uncomfortable for senior citizens because they also have to go out from time to time and to think that gasoline adds up to the problem is something that is really devastating.

I just hope that this crisis would stop because not only does it affect the senior citizens, it affects the entire nation as well.
