I haven’t gotten to escape because we can’t afford it. It sucks. This state eats up our incomes through huge taxes, which leads to high rent. Property taxes are absolutely fvcked here.

I don’t want to live here. I’ve been trying to get my husband to save a little extra money for years, but he didn’t take my advice. Now his hours have been cut back, so saving is a literal impossibility at this point.

The only other thing we could do is borrow money from family, but we’re all spread extremely thin. All of us want to leave, but that’s not going to happen now that the real estate market has dropped.

People tragically stuck living in the Socialist Republic of Illinois, California, New York, etc. have my sympathy. Prayers that you may escape from the Gulag.
