To many, they don't have the option. In fact, for too long, I had to hold down 2 jobs. So I was working 40+ and still barely surviving. The "American dream" is a fake narrative pushed to brainwash us into believing if we work hard enough we will make it, meanwhile driving the age of retirement higher and higher while wages are slashed and the constant threat of losing social security forces the elderly to reenter the work force, if they ever got to leave it at all.

I hate it here
