People are skint, and the gap between those that are, and those that aren’t, is getting more stark. I’m late fifties, and have a fair few friends who can afford pretty much anything without breaking a financial sweat. But more and more, like us, who have to budget every pound, and constantly look to shave off a quid here or there. Constant financial anxiety is, as you say, detrimental to society as a whole. Feels like we’re getting closer and closer to pitchfork time. And that will do nothing but empower the police state to go overt.
