Do We Have To Struggle ?

[Wild self]

I'm happy for you that you got to bond with your roaches and funky neighbors...

however, here in the richest country on the planet, no educated, non substance addicted citizen that works 40+ hours a week should have to go through that shyt. F these greedy landlords and a system that only puts bandaids on problems cuz conservatives think suffering builds character.

Next your gonna accept cash strapped Americans bathing and shyting in the East River cuz clean water running from a faucet equals woke / entitled.

Theey want America turn into India and let all kinds of new disease and pandemic outbreaks happen on a regular basis, because these landlords can't curb their own greed, wanting multiple tenants in a single bedroom. The sanitary logistics go out the window when the landlord wants a new Benz or a new property that they don't even need.

@ you falling for the bullshyt American dream. Were you expecting a white picket fence and 2.3 kids too?

You going to raise kinds in an impoverished environment? Or in rampant poverty? Soon, you gonna tell me that taking a daily bath or wearing deodorant is a luxury, or drinking clean water.

 

[tuckgod]

Not for much longer.

A lot of yall ain’t gone make it but the rest of us gone be living it up in another 5 years or so

Here's the thing about it.

1. There's truth to inflation, food prices, rent and all that. The landlords are out of control and the food industry is pissing on all of us because they are just cutting product when demand is through the roof. On that, no logical person can argue against. The corporations need to be taxed. Rents need to be capped at a percentage of ones income (i.e. you shouldn't be able to lease a place for more than 30% of your monthly income) and more housing inventory needs to be built. Period.

On top of that, corporations are shedding jobs like wildfire because the AI models are improving so fast that white collar workers are becoming obsolete. And yet, no one...NO ONE in the government has the balls to even tell the truth about it.

2. What I WILL say is that people need to be more humble about themselves. Everyone's crying about prices but still want to take their happy asses to NYC, Toronto, Chicago and LA. Those places are saturated. Rent IS cheaper in Detroit, Twin Cities, Kansas City, St Louis, Memphis, etc. but people don't want to live there because of shytty narratives and clout chasing. No you CAN'T AFFORD to live in the most happening area of the most happening city. Move to a chiller area and perhaps you could.

3. We don't have to "struggle" but also nothing is given. I feel for little sis, and I'm not going to speak on her situation because I don't know it. But there's ways to make it out here.

The collapse had already begun years ago. It won’t be sudden, it’ll slowly eat away like a disease. When shyt hits the fan, I hope you’ve stocked up on enough food, water, supplies and ammunition.

I’m telling you, it’s not gonna be pretty if you haven’t prepared. The government has never been for ALL the people, only the wealthy minority. They see everyone else as an expendable resource.

Do you think all these mega rich folks are showing off their underground bunkers for fun? Good luck is all I can say. Unless you can show me one still running today from over 300 years ago, every empire eventually falls.

pretty female yt tears are undefeated.


its damn near trolling but u right.

The only way to win in this country is to be lucky or learn to grift. Its completely unsustainable.

What do you think this country was founded on???

A lot of bot accounts on Twitter really. The loudest accounts with the most supporters have posts that show up the most on Twitter, so if its a Republican bot you know you'll see a lot of "Bootstraps this, bootstraps that" talk.

A lot more sympathy on TikTok.

i'll say it's tough because people think it's an adequately fair system based on logic and honesty, but that's far from the truth and a bunch of double standards.

My first apartment was a roach infested room that I rented in a shytty part of town. It was filled with a bunch of foreign exchange students that smelled bad and had awful hygiene. My family, girlfriend, and side piece all clowned me when they saw how I was living.

It's amazing hearing y'all complain about how hard you got it at a young age

Now I understand why the older generation talk about how entitled young folks are

Imagine complaining that young people are entitled instead of advocating that landlords provide better living conditions

It's folks living worse than that right now. Does that make you a bytch for complaining?

 

[King Poetic]

Get married broad.. that’s your answer

And stop trying to live above your means

Those non-popping cities, unfortunately, are the places where"right to work" and lack of abortion rights are a factor.

Not in the north. Illinois, Michigan and Minnesota are not right to work states and Michigan just enshrined abortion rights. People have a skewed view of the Midwest because it's not HYPER progressive like the coasts.

 

[Fillerguy]

What do you think this country was founded on???

Slave labor and the genocide of its native inhabitants. But those were implemented by the rich and powerful. That wasn't always the experience of the average citizen.

 

[Grand Cru Boo]

And this is the richest most powerful country on earth.

She's from the most powerful demographic.

If she can't live...

I hear you but it likely she live in a high CoL and likely don’t want to move (because the illusion of a “good job” in these spots seem to justify the high as rent.


You want NY/LA/Seatlle/San Fran, you better figure it out or head back to (insert random spot).
