Or lived on a low income, or had lots of kids, or gave heavily to church and charity, or had lots of medical/dental bills. The narrative is not always just option a or b.

You just figured out we are a debtor nations, head to toe?

Half the people I know live hand to mouth and could not get by without their next month’s paycheck.

Meanwhile, the government and inflation continues to take more and more of that check.
