2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

I assume you're in the USA? Can imagine it to be a lot harder there than elsewhere. Here you wouldn't even need to work at all, as long as you're ok with the very bare mininum like rent and food and stuff. A reason why we're drowning in refugees. The more kids the merrier. Or work some hours a week and earn a lil extra with tons of spare time left.
How one could do this in the US on minimum, i can't even imagjne. Sorry bro. But we all will catch up with your dystopia sooner or later...
Man if you think the US is the hardest place to live, you truly are drowning in privilege. No offence.
And I hope you do realise that the benefits and ease you have to live life are the direct fruits of the overexploitation of the global south by your government.
No, jeez. I'm gladly not in the US. And comparing to other so called first-world-nations it's surely the worst shithole.
So yes, I do know that. And i dislike it,even though I'm benefitting from it. Like we all do from slave labour in india, china, Pakistán and wherever...
Is it okay to ask you what continent/country you live in?
Germany. And why should it not be ok to ask? :-)
Just in case it wasn't ok
