    Haha, not quite making as much as you, but I’m doing significantly better than the average person and saving is just impossible. Groceries, energy and basically every other inelastic good just crept up to take up an increasingly big slice of the budget. It’s all shit you can’t easily cut.

    Then you hear conservatives talk about the fertility rate, and young people not having kids and you just think to yourself: “I can’t afford to add kids to a family, we’re barely getting by as it is.”. The family values people don’t give a shit about the economics of having one.
