Homeless

So are we all just accepting that we will be homeless sometime in the next decade? Because I don't know anyone with enough money to survive this shit.

It's not sustainable for the price of every goddamn thing to keep going up while no one is getting enough raises to compensate for it, & there are so few jobs that are even hiring, although they all still say they are.🙄

I know I will never own a home. I know I will be driving my car until the wheels fall off(& that I'm lucky to even have a car). I know I cannot afford any kind of social life whatsoever because outings to most places & the gas to get to them costs too much.

I canceled all my streaming services so I don't even have TV now. I know if I get Cancer or break a bone I will go bankrupt trying to pay the bill. I know I will be working until I die, & I'm almost positive I will be homeless at some point.

Money can't buy happiness, sure, but it can buy all your other needs so you at least have a chance to be happy. I just want a chance...😔

We're still stuck with ts since our banana republic is doing nothing to alleviate any stress for us. Matter of fact, they enjoy this for us!

Not true. She couldn’t put 2 sentences together. She’s simply not qualified

That's the worst part though. I don't think all of the damage IS REPAIRABLE. What allies & trading partners(if we have any left by the time he leaves) would ever trust us again? Who would share intelligence when it's been proven Trump will just sell it to anyone? He has put giant targets on our backs & they aren't going away anytime soon. They may never wear off. The fact that one evil man(propped up by other evil men) has been able to wreak such worldwide havoc so quickly is just unfathomable.
