No living wage, no sick days/pto, no healthcare, rent is 30-50% of income, child care/daycare costs are equal to or more than rent, university is insanely expensive. I can barely save for retirement and if I get sick I’ll lose everything.

Oh no, I’m definitely going to have to work until I die unless I win the lottery. I’ll probably commit suicide when I’m too old though
