Good news! I hope she loses more.

Me too! Actually I am LOVING the stock market meltdown. It's affected me ZERO percent because I was never rich enough to have millions involved in the stock market anyway! I spent all my income on paying off my debt and staying out of debt. Debt-free life is the only way to be totally free.

I'm totally free. :)

My only involvement with the stock market is my retirement account and that’s far enough in the future I don’t really care.

Congrats on the debt free life! That’s a great achievement!

Thank you! I retired at 50. Not because I was rich, but because I can live on basically nothing since I don't have debt. So I'm rich in "time" at least. Money, not so much. lol

lol Nice! I’d like to be at that point in a few years myself.

You got this, man. Just keep chipping at it, little by little. Put the goal date on your fridge, and keep at it.

I paid off my house and land and I never made more than 40K a year my entire life. It's all about just being smart and cutting expenses to the bone.

I would celebrate if any of this actually helped average people and reduced inequality.

But it won't, and it huts us more than them so nothing to celebrate.

So how come the Democrats didn't work on all this when they had the power? Pelosi her self was in power for a long time and she didn't do that. Why do you think that is?

Because they don't represent most Americans... Idk why everyone thinks that just because I'm not represented by Republicans that I must be a Democrat.

Democrats only ever fundraise when they have "power". But at lasts they don't try to actively harm Americans for self profit.

So why don't you speak up more about this on Lemmy? Condemn the democrats as well as the republicans.

You are not a very good troll are you.
