Is it just me or do poor neighborhoods of the US have a safer vibe now and the suburbs like a distinctly threatening vibe? I live in a poor neighborhood and these days being somewhere like this and seeing like a gangbanger-ish car roll down the street doesn’t make me nervous but a cop car definitely does kind of like how those same types of gangbanger-ish cars made me nervous when I was a middle class kid growing up in a nice neighborhood in the 2000s but police cars made me feel safe and protected. Like it’s all switched for me. A few days ago I stayed a few nights at my dad’s huge house in nice neighborhood and I was alone one night and felt extremely unsafe. I was so relieved to get back to my apartment alone in a poor neighborhood. Has anyone else had this experience of such a transition over the last twenty years or so?
I also don’t think the average person willve saved up 5mil to retire on, in fact I don’t think the average person will be able to retire, period.
The majority of bankruptcies are from medical expenses, from people WITH health insurance.
If you think that that’s acceptable, then I question your morality.
The whole point wasn’t in the actual numbers but feel free to use it to practice your algebra. Focusing on the numbers avoids the point completely, but I guess that is easier then root causes and structural problems to our capitalism/legal system.
And tell me where I said any of that is good? I said the comments made were made up, inaccurate, and didn’t represent the reality at all. Go look for some other boogeyman.
I’m sorry I called you out for fake news.
