#1 Rent and housing - costs of housing are unsustainable
#2 Affordable transit - prices and sizes of cars are unsustainable
#3 All other cost of living - people buying groceries on emergency funds
Nearly all of this can be pointed at a number of big business cartel-like behavior: Air BNB, Price Fixing, Layoffs, Inexplicably high corporate profits, fraud and abusive behavior by individuals and businesses.
Fund the welfare state for god's sake.
#1 I am inclined to agree I just bought a crummy cottage because I couldn't afford rent
#2 I agree they are selling affordable EVs in China, but they are under tariffs, and nobody else is selling really affordable basic cars
#3 I kinda disagree.. Granted I really only shop at places like Aldi/Walmart because standard grocers are very pricey. Prices aren't all that bad overall.
