This is the type of thing that made me leave my initial comment. I dont think someone who is poor would say this. Having no money is terrifying to middle class people (which is the vibe im getting from you) but its life for people who are dirt poor.
Also to be clear bottom 50% income is 50k a year and not poor, bottom 20% is dirt poor.
‘Supposed to’ doesn’t mean ‘does’. It means that’s what’s asked of you. Thank you for letting me know im middle class. I’ll let my bank know right away. Hopefully theyll fix the error by end of business monday.
If you’re not middle class and you disagree with what im saying then your life must be working, going home to the cheapest home, eating the cheapest food and then sitting waiting for more money. I highly doubt this is the case.
So then someone saying “if you’re in the bottom 50% of income there is nothing for you in the US. The expectation is working > shit house > cheap food > wait for more money” is false and insults your dignity.
There is life to live if you’re poor, but you’re not supposed to, society will try to stop it, and most of the best stuff is illegal.
You can no longer give your kids a better life with hard work.
You dont seem to understand how difficult that is and i don’t think you’ve ever been really poor.
So poor people just give up and die?
Supposed to, yeah. It’s not great.
