Holy s@#$! What’s going on in the states these days?
It's not too complex.
Private sector Americans have been losing their jobs, being evicted, losing their retirements, pensions, losing medical benefits, cut hours, reduced benefits, losing their businesses, savings...Lots of mental cases walking the streets instead of receiving treatment.......You name it.
The America decline started big in late 1996, or 1997, and has just become worse and worse.
All this while the cost of nearly everything, (except their homes/investments/wages) has doubled or tripled in the past 8 years.
