Inflation-adjusted home prices in China have fallen below where they started two decades ago, and the fiscal fallout is hitting local governments even harder than developers.
That would make the wealthy very happy if you did that. They wouldn’t have to pay taxes for your retirement.
My advice – if you can’t overcome your cynicism, go on to spite those fuckers who refuse to pay you enough for a comfortable retirement. To spite those who have denied you hope for the future, who want to work you to the bone and throw you in the trash.
Fuck those people, every breath you take is one less breath for Elon.
Having said that, we can organize and fight for a kinder world, that includes better social security that can pay for a comfortable retirement with people you care about. Don’t let your cynicism devour you.
A better world is possible, take action. Join DSA or start a union or join another org. Mamdani has proven the system is not invincible.
I have tried and tried. Got three STEM degrees and 20 years experience, and still never known job security. Now I’m about to be laid off again. I’m tired boss. My family can survive if I check out, but might not if I don’t. It’s a bit of a situation.
It’s not spite to continue being exhausted so a few assholes can be rich. I feel like it’s more harmful to live. I’m also coming to terms that I’m a miserable person, so maybe I was never meant to be here in the first place.
It sounds like you have people around you who care about you. I don’t know how much I, a random stranger on the internet can help. But know you’re not alone in your feelings. Consider seeking out professional help if you’re able to.
It may very well be irrational to keep on going. The universe doesn’t guarantee us a happy existence. But understand it’s irrational from a place of ego. Other people need you for their emotional well being if nothing else.
Hope is a thing with feathers, it may return someday. We must embrace hope long past time when it is rational, so that someday it may pirch again. Even if not for us.
This video has helped me work through these feelings some.
