We have implemented a 3% fuel surcharge which has offset the increased costs but by no means has the entire increase "been passed on". Reforecasted budgets with decreased earning projections is the reality. Decreased earnings equals decreased headcount, decreased headcount equals higher unemployment, higher unemployment equals higher taxes, higher taxes equals reduced standard of living etc. etc. The outlook is not pretty.
