𝓜(@Midewontmiss):i’m tired of hearing “the economy is doing well” used like that automatically means ordinary people are doing well. if someone can work full-time and still struggle with rent, transportation, food, healthcare, or seeing their family, a beautiful chart somewhere isn’t going to make them feel prosperous. an economy is ultimately made of human lives. if the numbers look fantastic while millions of people feel permanently exhausted and insecure, maybe the numbers aren’t telling the whole story.
