The horrible implications about your pets aside, you'd think economists understand what selling your car means in terms of employability.

So far past late-stage & it still won't die without taking everyone & everything with it first. The biggest monster we created (so far).
Meanwhile, in Canada...
I only have one car... and I ~~need to get to work for it.~~ need it to get to work.
So, since Bloomberg is so helpful, how about I steal their car and sell it to beat inflation? Think they're BMW's or Audis?
(edit- apparently not my night.)
did you mean to say
I only have one car and I need it to get to work
yes... but also... have to work for it. it's depressing, ain't it?
Yes, depressing. The day I realized I have to go to work to afford the car that I need to drive to work, it's an endless cycle of pointlessness and someone kill me please or at least get me out of this hamster wheel, the good news is I felt so strongly about it, that I fought my way out of the hamster wheel.
Hamster wheels are actually kinda fun.
Especially if they’re hooked up to a trebuchet.
How about just selling organs... of former executives and politicians... harvested in a dirty basement... and sold out of the back of a van...
Look, I'm just trying to share my life experiences to try and help, alright?
Tired:
How about just selling organs...
Wired:

Vince McMahon falling backwards:
harvested in s dirty basement... and sold out of the back of a van...
That was a rollercoaster
> Bloomberg's daily "Let them eat cake" post
Believe me I will not shed a single tear if you shoplift from Walmart or Target or whatever.
Why do all economists seem so out of touch?
The poor don't buy the artists' paintings, sir, neither do they commission articles.
The article isn't for us. It's for the super rich to justify their wealth. They'll read that and think, "yeah, I made my sacrifices, these kids need to make theirs if they want to be as wealthy as me. Now how do I pay my daughter to talk to me again?"
Because they worship money. It all makes sense when you assume this.
That tracks for Bloomberg
Or...the grocery store can stop price gouging their customers. The FTC already said they used the pandemic to inflate prices too much.
Are you struggling with rising costs? Finding it difficult to live in a society which the rich warp to serve only their needs?
Have you tried just having a much shittier life?
Across the globe, the most successful have already accepted you having a much shittier life, and it's working great for them!
Try a shittier life today! A shittier life: if you deserved more, you would've been born rich.

Real talk in case someone needs to see this:
I had a good friend who's dog got cancer and he spoke very passionately about regretting the chemo. He said that chemo for people is to kill the cancer chemo for animals is to extend their life, but this wasn't something he knew going into the process.
It was not a good experience for either my friend or his doggo.
Bloomberg economics can go fuck themselves.
I hope it doesn't come to it, but if I face this problem I plan to ask the vet what they would do if it was their dog. Not asking you to choose for me. But if it was your baby, what would you want for them?
Yeah, I probably wouldn't do chemo for my pet knowing what it does to a human who can communicate how much it sucks. Not because of inflation and the author of the piece really could've left that part out.
