I don't feel like getting yelled at on X but I just want to say: I'm glad the economy seems to be doing well for so many but I am drowning out here and every person I know is holding onto their pennies because everything is so expensive and they are afraid it will get worse. But if you say that, you're against Joe Biden or democracy.
Just quietly suffering fucking sucks.
And I know I'm not alone!!!!

And it's always the guys who were so nasty to you for just doing your job and swore up and down they had nothing to do with anything. And maybe they don't. But I guess we just let the old court system figure it out eh boys
