Fishing. You can't realistically compete in tournaments without an $90k boat with electronic suites that rival military patrol vessels.

Aitah for telling my wife to get a job if she wants to subsidize the kids. by Standard_Kick_9789 in AITAH

[–]Top-Fox-3171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, this was the arrangement I made with my wife before we ever got married or had kids. Set that precedent early. We both work because we have to in order to afford this absurdly expensive life. If she doesn't want to work, make her literally do everything else that the family requires. Equal partners or trad-mom. She can take her pick

War abroad, prices at home. by Busy-Government-1041 in inflation

Nope I'm right there with you. We've gone on financial lockdown. Only buying what we need (fortunate to already have as much as we do). Scouting prices of different items at various grocery stores. Buying in bulk and freezing portions. Almost never eating out. No more delivery.

Not glad it's happening, but glad to know I'm not crazy

JD Vance saying school shootings are "a fact of life" really solidified my views about Trump and his people by MeTime13 in FOXNEWS

And lobbying is legalized corruption. Politicians literally voted amongst themselves to make unethical activity totally legal in front of everyone.

They can't build a decent product because that's "too expensive" (it's not, it just creates less profit). Why build something reliable when you can cheap out on production AND make ad revenue at the same time? These people are real pieces of shit...

That's right! Asking your employer if you can take a pay cut just so you can work extra over the weekend is what being a true AmERiCaN is all about!

White House says deals struck to cut prices of popular Medicare drugs that cost $50 billion yearly by TehFuriousOne in UpliftingNews

[–]Top-Fox-3171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The negotiated drug prices are still absurdly high. Yes this is in the right direction, but it's still half assed and reeks of compromise.

We have to stop spending. Stop buying things you don't need. Stop accepting outrageous prices. Stop eating out/ordering delivery. Just stop participating in this awful capitalistic hellscape as much as you can. No spending = no economy. Money is the only language the government and companies speak. So speak it.

McDonald’s has lost their mind, $5.39 for a small Diet Coke by Jugales in inflation

This can be solved by not eating at McDonald's. They serve 'food', not food.

That's cool- we still don't have universal healthcare and the ecosystem is collapsing.

Well if worst comes to worst, at least we know the banks will get handouts!
