What the fuck, dude. I get your sentiment but you're being so mean. I already know I have issues. That's the whole point of this post. Don't need to be so aggressive and call me a shitty human. Jesus christ. You must be one of those 'Brutally honest' people that thinks cruel words is helpful.

"Just get a new job" is a completely asinine take. Many many reasons people can't. Someone with a family working full time doesn't have the time or energy to develop the skills for a better job. Someone at fast food in a small town has the choice of other fast food or other retail which all pays the same.

In my wife's case, she cares for a disabled family member. If she didn't do it, nobody would. She has no choice.

This is all just taking correlation and applying causation. Right next to headlines about doom spending and people not being able to save in the first place. An extra thousand dollars a year won't do anything to really improve anyone's life situation, but it can buy a fun Christmas.

You know what would be a great Christmas? Being able to buy a house. Not having $800 a month in student loan payments. Being able e to do anything to actually advance in life.

But they don't measure anything related to improving quality if life, because they don't want you saving. They want you spending every penny and staying poor.

Maybe not bomb hospitals and apartments? Funnel fleeing civilians through active combat zones? Maybe not force Palestinians off of their properties?

Hamas is committing atrocities that are par for the terrorism course. We should t expect them to play by the rules.

Isreal is a globally recognized and sanctioned government, committing genocide and war crimes.

Both sides need to stop.
