That's very true. One thing that annoys me is that the cost of fuel isn't proportionate to the number of people in a house. Boiling a pan of potatoes costs around the same for one person as it does for four. A TV uses as much electricity if there's one or twenty people watching it.
I qualify for nothing at all, except a 25% reduction in council tax now I live on my own, but the cost of living is going up the same for me as it is for everyone else.
