The reality where people cannot afford $10-20 things. And the corporations just start charging those poor people interest.
You see, it's funny because life is a late stage capitalist hellscape from which I cannot wake ๐
It is actually pretty unethical and scummy. I think we need a boycott
Being poor is expensive.
Of course. How else do you keep poor people poor and rich richer.
Poor people: charge them extra for not affording things.
Rich people: let them buy things they don't need but can afford and then charge poor people to rent those things.
