I started making 6 figures (barely. Literally salaried at 100k) a few years ago, from poverty wages. I get why people struggle around 100k. Its almost enough, but not quite, to comfortably live the american dream.
It allowed me to barely afford a decent house where i live instead of perpetually renting. If I did not have low rent before, that probably wouldn't have happened either way.
Now I am tied to my job no matter how unhappy I am until I can afford some sort of change. Whenever that will be.
These cost of living increases are making things significantly more difficult, but I can't imagine how it'd be if I was never given any sort of a break.
Makes me more sympathetic, and far more angry with this shit, knowing that I was probably one bad day away from being homeless instead.
Lol how much power do you think a mayor actually has? Everything he does is going to be an uphill legal battle. He's like the only leftist in new York politics
Why are you throwing pointless purity tests at the dude who is 80% aligned with your policies? Why not go after the dudes who are 0% aligned with your policies?
This is fucking dumb. He's a mayor, not king of fucking new York
