These lefties have no concept of the needs of everyday Americans. As they tell you what to do while sipping their 15 dollar latte from their NYC high rise condo typing these absurd articles.

I had to laugh at the $300K per year salary.
It's no longer the $50K bunch.

In one way I agree with them - you do what you need to do...but why did he draw the line at $300k?
Are they that out of touch?

Imagine if this was a FoxNews article, the Leftists here would be blasting Fox News and this thread would already be on the 21st page but since it is their liberal media, they are silent.

Don't forget to finance a $60K electric vehicle, if you can't afford gas.

And don't be shocked - pardon the pun - when it's time to replace your non-recyclable lithium battery.
Because, you know, you're saving the planet by buying a car that needs to be electrically charged, when most of electric is generated by coal and natural gas.

It's best to buy in bulk cheaply before the prices go up even more.

They don't want preppers.

We will live above the fray, indulging in as much consumption of any kind we choose - whilst morally shaming the great unwashed.


You will own nothing, and be happy.

I despise Democrats, and there is no way I’m taking a bus and mixing with psychos, drug addicts, and the homeless.

But I agree with the other ideas. First of all, many people purchase way too much. There is no need to do that. Secondly, people eat way too much, and they make very unhealthy choices. Putting down the hot dogs, potato chips, and soft drinks and eating lentils and other healthy foods should be a no brainer

We are suppose to live in a free country. If people want to spend excessively on stuff, it is their right. We shouldn’t be restricted because of inflation. Under Trump, we didn’t have this problem. People can be as wasteful or as frugal as they want. Now, only the rich have that freedom.

Ironic that the party that claims to be for the underclass have caused that underclass to suffer the most. And also ironic that under Trump (the person the Democrats claimed was for the rich) the underclass had the lowest unemployment rate in the history of this country, in other words, the poor did a lot better under Trump.

So many ironies.
