🤔Gonna start a fund for myself/hubs; if Giuliani, Mr Trump, etc can raise millions for bad behavior after being arrested & w/his mugshot, for political & legal stuff, and to help spread misinformation, why can't we, ordinary folks raise just enough for needed things?
Ugh.I like our Prez, but his campaign runs on helping the middle class. I'd like to see a candidate who will champion/help/build the lower, poorer class. Used to be mid class; became disabled. Fixed income & only 1 of us can get✅
@Gramdma2011 it's very unpopular to advocate for the poor. prosperity gospel and all that.
@dietotaku Yes, but it shouldn't be, I think. I think people would pay more attention to politics if it were more relatable.
Some "In tha hood" folks I know don't want to vote because they feel only richer (mid & high income) reap from it. All they ever hear is "Cut this, cut that", "They don't need to collect benefits, go to work" "Lazy, uninspired because, benefits, drugs, kids, etc", & "Yada yada yada"
These same folks work, pay well over half their income for rent & utilities, gas/ ...
@dietotaku ...to get to work, daycare if they have kids, adult care/aid if caring for parents; the rest for food & essentials.
A working poor class, even w/benefits, or w/multiple
jobs, struggles to keep a roof overhead & utilities on.
A nonworking poor class is in worse condition & basically stuck & often feeling hopeless. People w/no cash flow, Disabled, homeless, etc; people w/only a small fixed income, benefits only, or none at all. People who have no way to 'make a lil extra'.
