  2. Good point on transportation being surprisingly expensive. Many drive cars they can't afford....and car insurance isn't cheap (I assume that's in that pie piece)

    Healthcare seems (relatively) inexpensive but of course much of that cost is subsidized by employers and hence that expense is included in everything else you buy....
