When I moved to the PRK, my new boss said there would be @ a 30% increase in the cost of living. The truth turned out to be @ 300%.

Housing is disproportionally high out here. Gas prices are over $4/gal.

I have to pay local business taxes to use my computer in my own home. It is time to relocate.
