Capitalism is a lot better at taking our money in 2026 compared to 1996 and in 2036 they will be a lot better at taking our money.

Car debt isn’t drowning. People just think they deserve a 90l car and 3000 sqr foot house

In 90s gas was less than a dollar, average house around 100k, airplanes treated passengers like royalty, full meal from JFK-ATL, affordable land, $100 was serious amount of money, health care was already hijacked though

Simulated Ruin :
Every boomer I knew was paying $100-200 on full cable packages and a phone line… and we can’t really do anything about the cars. Manufactures are purposely limiting IOH to drive up prices and margins. Why sell 10 cars with $1500 margins when you can sell 2 with 7500 margins.
