yeah... so back to the topic now.
i feel it's important to feel that your leaders are in touch with the people, it gives you a sense that the people who make desicions that affect your everyday lives are people who know exactly how those desicions will actually affect you.
that being said, i'll agree with others that there are some things more important that the price of bread, but i know that's simply an example to get a head-scratcher. i'd ask a leader questions more along the lines of the price of healthcare and how the average person working a low-paying job is supposed to afford it. questions that will give you answers that really allow you to gague that leader's insight into how the other half lives.
i would want people asking questions of substance, because i feel that knowledge of the price of a loaf of bread is about as telling as the price of tea in china.
