When you’re already more or less locked in to a lifestyle and then hit with record inflation, not everyone is going to just cancel their lives and live like a pauper, especially families. Yes many people are grossly irresponsible with credit card debt, but that isn’t the story for everyone. You’d have to be living under a rock to not see how insanely expensive life has become in the last few years. Sure people can sell off all of their possessions and move to Nebraska, but that isn’t a reasonable solution.
I hear yah, personally I cancelled a bunch of streaming apps, making all my food and coffee at home and been hitting thrift stores and estate sales for things I need. I know shits expensive, my car is a 2006 and it eats gas but I’m not falling for the new car trap.
People have done all of what you have mentioned here but still living paycheck to paycheck. They did it because they already know they can’t afford stuff. Now they’re starting to stop eating healthy too. You going to claim vegetables are luxury? Fuck you if you do.
