@@humanbeing5300 Don't try to tell a libertarian facts. Next thing you might point out that with no police, they'd have to pay private security to not get instantly robbed; with no public schools, they'd have to pay for a private school; with no sewer/water, they'd have to pay someone to provide those to not get cholera from drinking their own contaminated water. And, at the end of the day, you end up with private entities you have to pay constantly--which is totally different than a gov't/taxes and better because... I dunno, they have profit margins so it's more expensive. The funniest part is most libertarians live in suburbs or rural areas where they're actually a net drain on tax coffers--literally taking handouts from more densely populated areas because providing services to spaced out areas requires ton more infrastructure (roads, water/sewer lines, electric lines, power use for large homes that don't share walls, etc.) per person supported.

But… if you are happy staying broke and poor then keep thinking like you do: you are probably so accustomed to that life that you wouldn’t know what to do with prosperity and money in the bank.

And remember! Billionaires, banks and big business all got bailed out multiple times on YOUR backs. That's why interest rates are up - the inflation driven by these bailouts.

Everyone said it back in ‘08 when the banks were bailed out that they would make this happen again due to not being forced to learn any lessons and here we are.

They literally started doing the exact same thing that caused the housing crisis in 07 with the auto industry the next year. The exact same banks and loan companies too. If you look closely youll see way too many temporary plates around you. Thats the people who cant afford the first payment on their brand new 2024 they were forced to buy, because the banks wont loan on a car older than 3 years right now unless you make 120k and up and can easily afford the newer car.

The worst part about this entire situation is that you tell somebody from an older generation and they don’t believe you all they do is tell you to pull yourself up by the boot straps. I’m 28 years old I live on my own in a one bedroom apartment in New York City because I grew up here in Brooklyn. I make $75,000 a year and I barely make ends meet. I have a savings of less than $5000 and I struggle all the time. At the end of the month I have a little over $1000 for myself after paying all my bills. I make $75,000 a year. It’s honestly so utterly ridiculous and this is all done by design by government. The only way things change is if people start to fight back. Everybody needs to stop having such a defeated mindset and accepting the fact that it’s over in theirminds. It’s really screwed up in America now we have to adopt this mentality of shacking up with some random roommate We don’t even know or needing to be in a relationship just to be able to save money. This is what happens when people vote without using their logic and they use their emotion and this is where it gets us. It’s not right and something needs to change.

Its not as much as financial greed but the W.E.F wants to control the world. The richest of the rich decided that they should control everything, manage populations, distribute what foods and medicines they feel appropriate. People get angry believing that this is just something that is happening but Klaus Schwab and his Billionaires at the W.E.F. control many of the worlds political leaders. Biden is a willing follower or they have all the dirt on Biden and he does their bidding to keep his entire family out of prison. Trudeau is a favorite son, many European leaders bend the knee, even China and India report back to the W.E.F. The W.E.F can buy and fire any American Mayor, DA, Legislator that they want, Democrats are generally on board but the RINO republicans fall in line. Its time to look at the puppet master lurking behind the curtains who are pulling all of the strings. All it takes are greedy power hungry politicians and the W.E.F.s work is made so much easier. Add in the general ignorance to what is happening along with the willful avoidance where people don't want to see it when its right in front of them in plain sight and you have a situation where the W.E.F. can operate with impunity. Once you realize just how insidious the W.E.F. is to have robbed a planet full of people of their ability to voice their opinions and influence their counties future by voting. If their leadership are WEF puppets then elections are moot and free will is lost.

Almost two dollars per stick of butter in Massachusetts

ya I remember buying a four pack of butter... like 2 bucks maybe almost three with 2 dollars and 50 to 60 cents. Yesterday went to buy one 5.67. Every item is like this though. So everything you buy just blows the bill out of this world for one meal.

When I was a kid in the 50’s and 60’s my parents would buy my shoes on their Sears credit card. Life was much simpler but we were still relatively poor. Gas was 25 cents a gallon but we only had one car. My parents lived through the Great Depression and survived WW2. Today people will have to adjust to the crash that is coming.

"Incomes are going up" is complete ludicrous! Seventeen years ago I was in a deadend office job making $13/hr. Now I'm $75k in student debt, have two licenses and one degree, only being offered $8-$10/hr!

Thank God John inherited a house and has no mortgage and both vehicles are paid off. I’m speaking for a friend. 👀 Edit: Let me rephrase this. The value of today’s 45k is 28k in 2003.

I work weekends and my city is a ghost town until noon or so. Then people come out to eat lunch at fast food. Weirdest economy/society I have ever seen.

"Why don't they just go ahead and let it crash?"... ummm... gotta get the right scapegoat ready first.

I grew up poor. Got my 1st job at 12 y.o. and had at least 2 jobs at a time for the next 40 years. I pay for my living costs in cash and have not paid a penny in interest in 30 years or more. People who know how to live below their means will always survive if not thrive.

I took a cross-country motorcycle trip from the Mississippi to the Atlantic last summer. I was astonished at the absolute decay of almost every city, town, and neighborhood that I passed through. I saw **countless** homes that desperately needed a new roof or siding repair-and had clearly needed the repairs for quite some time. Vehicles were trusted and in disrepair. Roads and highways for hundreds and hundreds of miles, through numerous States, were in shambles. It was very clear from the zoomed-out perspective that the country is in a state of decay. People and communities can't afford to maintain existence, let alone advance and prosper.
