Policy is written for those with the funds to lobby for it. The concept of policy is great. The reality of policy is that it seems written for corporations these days.
On being frugal, I like that frugality almost directly links to anticonsumption. But there’s being frugal and becoming poor because everything is costing more. I used to spend slightly less than I brought in, now I’m spending slightly more.
It’s all I’ve ever done. I scrimped and saved for a long time to get an emergency fund for myself and Melbcat, and our money is getting eaten into so already rich people can get obscenely rich.
so many hugs
in times like these our friends and family is our greatest asset
I’d say better policies :(

of course, but we should also take measures on a personal level to make our lives safer, more stable and more resilient against the knockbacks of life
