    What this tells people is “fuck off, you are on your own. Government doesn’t work for people like you.”

    But that isn’t how Democracy is supposed to function. It is actually supposed to develop and implement policy to improve the quality of life for the general public - especially the broad swaths of people who work for a living.

    It’s also insane that the advice is to “get a roommate” at the same time leaders are crying that people in their 20s and 30s aren’t having enough kids. Guess what? If you make people live like they are too young and broke to have kids for the first 25 years of adulthood, they will… Not have kids. Shocking.
