Sitting here wondering if Israel will pummel Iran makes you say "Yea, pound them into the stone age!". But unintended consequences set in quickly as you realize that Iran controls a vital oil passageway in the Hormuz strait.

Trucks need diesel to transport food, so that commodity will increase overnight. You think you are paying a lot now, just wait until oil is in short supply. Get thinking NOW about how you will fare if some grocery stores no longer carry your favorite cans of veggies or meats. How will you compensate? Now is the time to think about it. Plus, will you be able to fill up your gas hog of a 4 x 4 truck to go to work? Might cost you close to two hundred dollars for a fill up. Think about that.
