For those who did everything our parents told us to do... now what?


Hello everyone! We've gone dark to protest Reddit's API changes towards third party apps.

About

This subreddit was forged about the same time the economy went to hell, lamenting the sorry state of the economy, the problems of an educated (and sometimes over-educated) young workforce having troubles finding employment despite "doing everything right", and just what this generation is supposed to do when the usual markers of adulthood (kids, house, marriage) have been pushed back in the name of higher education/income potential, along with the collective reorganization of a new set of values.

My mom thought what Luigi Mangione did was wrong. I showed her this video and it changed her mind.

So what kind of cost of living spike are you planning for this month?

In the big picture, I know we American plebs are living through another wealth transfer, the fourth or so for Millennials and maybe the last before social and technological complexity reverts to agrarian feudalism.

But for the next month or so, what kind of price shocks are we looking at with tariffs and retaliatory tariffs on top of ongoing astronomical inflation?

Like can we expect gas to be as low as $5 a gallon, or is $10 or higher more realistic?

How about a loaf of store-brand bread? $10 for a while longer or are we more in the $20+ range?

And not that anyone can afford a new construction home, but is the floor gonna be a mil for anything beyond a tiny home?

They’re totally cool with camps BTW

I’m living in Florida and a lot of liberals seem to have trouble coming to terms that Republican voters are just as evil as their politicians. We need to defend ourselves.
