| Topic | The Cost of Living Keeps Rising |
| Zora_Prince 08/09/25 7:08:12 PM #223: | Agreed. I compare it to the obesity epidemic. Yes, you one is denying that personal responsibility is a factor, but when 1/8th of the human population is now obese and 50% of the world is expected to be obese by 2050 at the current rate, this clearly isn't a problem of "People have just gotten lazy and are making bad choices" and is an indication of a systemic issue. It's demoralizing. I feel like in the past decade, all of my idealism and optimism has been shattered. Things like the internet that were supposed to revolutionize society for the better is now used as an effective weapon. I'm fortunate enough to be doing OK (Bought a Condo a year ago, have a sizable savings, and don't struggle to pay bills) but am worried about the future of the world. --- Enjoy those old Choose-Your-Adventure Novels and Writing?
