Older generations say “we all struggled in our 20s.” No, you didn’t. You didn’t pay $2,200 for rent and $7 for eggs. You didn’t graduate into $50K student debt and $0 job security. Gen Z isn’t dramatic. They’re drowning.

“Move to a cheaper state,” they say. Until insurance spikes, utilities jump, and the tire bill eats your raise. There’s nowhere to hide from bad policy.

“Work, work, work” and then look at your account and panic. If middle-class couples are budgeting for the first time ever, what do you think is happening to everyone else?

$2,000 rent. $535 car note. $370 insurance for TWO cars. Explain to me how a $20/hr family survives. I’ll wait.

Making the most money of your life and still choosing which bill to skip. That’s not “inflation.” That’s an economy that eats its workers. We are all on the menu.

America isn’t debating anymore. It’s bleeding. When opponents become “enemies,” violence isn’t shocking. It’s inevitable.

Inflation means your bills got promoted and you didn’t. The landlord got a raise. The grocery store got a raise. You got a “be grateful you have a job.”

Minimum wage in America is $7.25. To live comfortably today, it would need to be $66. That’s $120K a year just to scrape by.

America has plenty of money. But the architecture isn’t rose-gold towers. It’s rotting strip malls, collapsing rentals, and families sleeping in parking lots. The richest country looks broke on purpose.

Wealth used to mean security. Now it just means “I can pay my bills this month.” The bar keeps moving. And the finish line doesn’t exist.

The system is bleeding you out one bill at a time. Electric. Water. Gas. Insurance. Taxes. Every month you lose a little more. And Wall Street calls it “resilience.”
