      I usually don’t start political shit with people in real life but anytime anyone mentions poor people “spending all their money” and “not saving anything” I immediately bring up April 2020 and the fact that a single month of people staying home and not making frivolous purchases nearly collapsed the global Western economy.

      Poor people literally can’t save money or everything these people hold dear would come crashing down (which, sounds awesome but the fallout would be magically externalized to poor people like it always is).
