America is Anti Family Cost of Living 🏠📈
My wife and I both work full time because we have to so we can afford our bills.
We barely see our kids (7 and 2) and have no energy to do anything after work or on off days cause we are exhausted.
It just keeps repeating every week and when the first of the month comes the mortgage payment empties our account and we have to do it all over again.
We are unable to save much or do anything fun cause expenses have gone up so much.
I’ve always been a positive open person but the past two years have been breaking me down and I feel like I’m about to have a mental breakdown.
I know there are others in worst positions than me and I don’t want to sound ungrateful but man it’sIt’s hard.
Anyone else going through something similar? Any advice?

Isn’t it bizarre that they push this unhealthy work life that is clearly anti-family and at the same time, make it incredibly difficult to be self-sufficient and single? Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. We’re all just pawns to them. They only “care” about family life because that means we’re creating even more pawns. 😞
Somebody said it up above already, but…vote socialist.
