I’m making way more money than I ever have in my life and I can barely save anything lol
Switched jobs, got a 50% raise. Can’t afford food till second pay of next month. Going to wipe out my canned food collection.
I’m making more than I think anyone else has ever made in my family’s history before and I feel like I’m headed for collapse.
The wheels on the bus are about to come off, about to come off, about to come off. The wheels on the bus are about to come off all through the town.
the bus went over the cliff a while back. left and right are arguing if the wheels are going round and round and we’ve jumped right past the guard rails and are sailing into oblivion.
Welcome to adulthood.
I’m 31 my dude, been adulting for a while.
It’s worse now
But the economy is doing great!
Look at this green line we built out of your blood!
Our mortgage payment is going up $125/mo because property values went up. Idk how in gonna afford that
Edit. Sounds like OP might be talking about property taxes, not mortgage principal.
——-
?
It sounds like you have an adjustable rate mortgage. If so, it is the national interest rate that is driving that up.
Your increased property value doesn’t drive up your mortgage. That is fixed.
Are you in the U.S.? We have 30 year fixed mortgages here your monthly payment shouldn’t be going up. Or did you mean property taxes?
Many mortgages just have the property taxes rolled into them
So it’s probably property taxes, but it’s showing up on the mortgage payment
Okay, who here honestly thinks a Republican president is going to do better on the economy?
Please let me prove you wrong by answering in the affirmative.
Republican presidents are always are always worse for the economy. It’s a low bar to cover, but at least democrats don’t cut as much from education, health care, and other social safety net programs.
What are you trying to say? I’m honestly confused.
Oh. If they answer they think a Republican will do better on the economy, then I’ll proceed to show how Republicans are the most financially irresponsible of the two parties.
He’s looking for a fight that no one is interested in so he can state all the facts they have been building up about economic policy.
The problem is that people that should hear it don’t care and those of us who care already know but can’t do much about it.
They are just screaming they want to be logical/rational in an unlogical/irrational world.

Well, god damn, if that doesn’t hurt.
To be fair we know exactly what can be done about it, we just really don’t want our lives to get even harder (or end) in the short term.
LoL yeah… man as a group I think we could do something but like… solid chance you get shot by the national guard like a Kent State college student.
Very few martyrs actually get anything done.
Alright then, hit me with some facts.
Alright @PeepinGoodArgs this your time to shine, someone is asking for it.
I mean sure. But I was asking you.

That’s not a strawman, strawman is making shit up then arguing against it as if the other person said it.

This is entirely because the republican house refused to extend Biden’s covid era child tax credit. Biden should run on this issue. If he doesn’t, the Rebublicans will by blaming him.
I would think that the child tax credit end would have a lot to do with these numbers.
Where’s all that war profit going?
Bidenomics
Brandon running for the next term focusing on economy
Nobody will believe him after the student loan lie. So centrists will be disillusioned again, not vote again, and they’ll blame the left again - when in truth he didn’t go left enough.
