Most of you were scared that this would happen.
So scared you called me a troll for not sharing your fear.
How's the bus riding going?

Lol. You dolt. The price of almost everything in this country has gone up by almost 25%. Put another way, 1 dollar in 2019 is equivalent to 1.24 today. That's insane. Over 4 years? 1 in 4 people are struggling with the cost of living. A person making 50k would need a 10k raise today to have the same standard of living they had just over 3 years ago. At 100k, you would need 20k more to have the same purchasing power. I'm glad you're doing fine, but you lost a boatload of money largely due to bad governance.

The problem with you and your friends is that you're perfectly happy to be told what the right hand is doing while the left hand is in your pocket. If you think this trend will slow down with another 4 years of establishment power, I don't know what else to tell you.
