It's remarkably easy to have your expenses slowly creep upward in our society. Especially as prices constantly go up in the name of "inflation".
It’s to keep you poor and working. You’ll fall in line if you can’t go a week or a month without a job. If everyone had a year of wages saved up, employers would have to be better.
