Rise in fuel prices felt by poor
people as expressed in a news article, which said that with rising fuel,
grassroots would be miserable (Putra, 2014). Generally, the negative impacts
that hit poor people can be seen from economic and
psychological point of views. The more explanation about this will be
accentuated in the following discussion.
From economical point of view, it may affect the increase in the price of various types of goods/services. This arises because the inflation expectations of market especially retailers are affected by rising fuel prices by raising the price of wares (Afandi, 2014). Furthermore, he explained that generally, rising prices of goods basic needs of society occurs when the issue of rising fuel prices began to be heard. Besides that, grassroots will have an impact on the decline in purchasing power because increase in fuel prices will then be coupled with increases electricity, transport and various types product. The group felt the consequences fence is poor communities (Ikko, 2014).
Psychological point of view is also one of the negative impacts, the increase in fuel prices makes housewife becomes stressful, life increasingly heavy burden. So that makes them frustrate (silontong, 2014) It cannot endure prolonged, ultimately much less faith and risk of suicide, the suicide sometimes also include their children in spite also of suffering life on earth. As a result of the poor is reduced.
Consequently, the impact of fuel price hike based on economical and psychological point of view which explained in previous paragraph is certainly making the poor people who are victims, they will die slowly because of the burden of life is expected to be increasingly difficult to face.
