Government overheads are larger, though I don’t think they need to be. Hope progress in this area comes soon!

I am interested in your comments and feedback to the information posted at http://www.pocketsnet.com.

For those driven fuel costs, will the numbers go back down if fuel costs go down? I didn’t become a WW because of fuel, for me it was all quality of life stuff, but I don’t think I could go back.

As for the reasons against, wow, anyone who’s done their laundry, made soup, and met that deadline without spending X hours commuting knows that “reduced productivity” just ain’t so.

Conceded: It’s not for everyone and home environments vary. But I hope I never have to go back.
