Yikes: 50% of Americans say they live paycheck to paycheck. 31% of ppl that make 100K live the same.

The entire US financial system is based on huge debt and the unchecked "printing" of money, which has no real backing; not to mention large financial institutions lending each other money in an extreme credit based system. Inflation will continue to trend as a result of the loss of purchasing power of the dollar based on US monetary policy. Basically means your dollars will continually be able to buy less and less goods and services comparatively speaking. Plus Americans have been living a period of excess. Many folks don't know what it means to put aside frivolities and tighten that belt.

The housing market is currently in a bubble and will eventually burst...boom and bust cycles etc etc. This time foreign interests will probably pour more money than ever before into US markets.

There's definitely a new order shift brewing and that's what Biden was talking about in his speech.

A lot of people live to pay corporations instead of themselves.

Exactly, the 100k is to entice people, but fukk I'm cool with making slightly less and working from home. The coli may think I'm crazy for not working a 45 / hr job in person( @Chrishaune ), for a remote job that pays a bit less. I'm not sitting in traffic to make a few more $$.

I feel bad for all the people I see commuting to work everyday, high gas prices, dealing with traffic, and being stressed the fukk out before 8am.


@CouldntBeMeTho :hubie:

It would be crazy to go to the office for $45 vs $40 at home
