The difference was that $100K went further before Bidenflation and Democrat socialism creeping into everyday life now.
Another example is the $15 min wage. Many Democrat cities and states implemented it and the cost of the higher wages gets passed onto the consumer. Now everything is more expensive to the point that even the $15 min wage is not enough to live on and soon they will up it to $20 or $25.
It then becomes a vicious cycle that’s hard to get out from.
Exactly, and many of us warned about that while others insisted that wouldn't happen. Well... it has.
We all get what they voted for. Tried to tell them but their hatred of Trump blinded them.
The right's red hot hatred of lets see, Clinton, Obama, and Biden had nothing to do with it of course....
Sorry, Trump is just a greedy incompetent idiot blowhard. Anybody alive since the 70s knows that if they ever take their partisan blinders off. He was an idiot back when he was a DEMOCRAT supporter (he lived in NYC so had to bribe Democrats back then) and not a politician himself. He was just busy bankrupting casinos that he bought and using his firehose of lies philosophy to confuse those he wanted to take advantage of. Still an idiot now that he has went neo-fascist Republican supporting far right Putin-esque policies, an incompetent wannabe crime boss.
US people tend to live in bigger spaces, have more stuff, dine out more frequently, etc than in the rest of the world.
Of course you want to make excuses for your Biden guy but inflation of 1.26% is normal compared to the 4%, 5%, 6% and 7% we are seeing after Biden and your Democrats gained full control the federal government.
People are spending money like there is no tomorrow. Credit cards and orders online made it easy and appealing. So many choices and people are bombarded by ads that tell them: you must have... !)
Filing for chapter 7 is easy and no consequences. Debts are forgiven, so why bother?
$100,000 salary today- after everything is taken out- is nothing much. After all state and federal grabs, and you divide what’s left by 12 months, I don’t see how people are paying these home prices.

Work and shop it's all what we do...
The sad fact is, no tomorrow is looking more likely every day.

When there is inflation and money is getting tight it means one has to take a look at their budget and adjust accordingly.
Yes, less spending, less eating out and downsizing. Not a rocket science.
Here is the absurdity. We have known about rising prices for over a year....why are people STILL consuming at record levels.
There has been no slow down in demand for goods -- and I don't mean basic -- milk, bread --- I mean 'stuff'.
In January 22nd Charleston ports set record numbers for the goods imported. AND we are have ships waiting to get into the ports..
Unemployment rate is 3.8% 678,000 jobs added in February.
It's a crazy world.
