Are you getting poorer?

It seems to me that the UK is getting poorer. Eveythingthing seems to be getting more expensive relative to salaries/wages, and people seem to have less money than they used to. I know the cost of living has increased recently, but this seems to be a bigger trend. Even buildings in previously prosperous areas of the south east are starting to look unmaintained and shabby.
