Where you raise kids isnt a choice for most people around here. Where you live isnt much of a choice. Most people cant afford to move, and if they miss two paychecks they just go homeless. If their paycheck is smaller than normal they go into debt that they can hopefully crawl out of in a month or so of eating as little as possible. Even if we got together enough money to move, that wouldnt help, because afaik i already live in the cheapest area in my entire country. To leave my country absolutely requires a plane ticket, and since I’m a natural born citizen whos parents lost their birth certificate, i have an extremely arduous process ahead of me for getting my passport. With the current regime, trying to prove my citizenship puts me at more risk currently than just lying low, so basically, I’m actually 100% stuck living where I currently am.
In a twisted way, im both better off and worse off than most people i know. Most people i know rely on government welfare(and rail against it), and they normally have a little bit more leeway to make risky ventures as a reault of having stable income not tied to a location. A bit like ubi. Meanwhile I make too much to be on govermental assistance, but my finances are stretched too thin for me to save money and tied to where I live. So to move would be to secure a new job at the same time as a new house, all while guaranteeing my income is 0 during the process, and I have no money to fall back on. In the “stuck” sense, ive got it worse than most around here. But I do make enough to eat without govermental assistance, so I’ll get to eat this month while most of my neighbors actually fucking starve to death in the middle of America because theres no food stamps for november.
Seriously, like, everyone be prepared. The rioting this month is going to be bad. I give it about a week into November when we start seeing people go fucking nuts.
