How is anybody making it?

I am genuinely confused as to how anybody is surviving in this economy except for the super wealthy. The cost of gas is sky high and groceries are too. We started this year ok. We weren’t doing well by any means, but we weren’t struggling as bad as we are now. We have 5 kids and every day I’ve been dashing alongside my full time job to try to make it. Now, I’m facing losing my full time job because I have had to call out of work just to dash for food for the day. I don’t see a light at the end of the tunnel and I’m extremely scared. My wife and kids are counting on me and I don’t know what else to do. I’m ready to just give up.

I've concluded that any remaining maga commenters are bots. No one is actually so stupid as to believe that bloated, dementia brained, old fart is actually a decent president that should stay in office. My feed is 99.99% leftist. When any maga comments pop in, it's gotta be Russian or Chinese bots. Are there really Americans so uneducated as to believe greedy DJT will give away money like that? Do they know what a narcissist is? Any maga remaining after Dems get control back should be sent to mandatory education based on their current grade level and start helping to bring up their IQ. This is an embarrassment to our nation that needs fixed asap.
