Do you realize what you just did?
You bet against the American Economy. Which means-- WHICH MEANS if we're right-- if we're right people lose homes. People lose jobs. People use retirement savings. People lose pensions. Know what I fucking hate about Crypto, it reduces people to numbers, here is a number: If unemployment goes up 1%, 40,000 people die, did you know that? Huh?
Did you know that?

That's exactly what's good about it. What's the point of making it, if everyone else is doing fine? The real making it is when everyone else is dying of hunger and you are looking at them struggling through the fence of your mansion, champagne in hand.

Once basic needs are met, yes. Few people want to see others destitute, but virtually everyone compares their own status to others. Achieving above the norm is validation of ones hard work, intellect, guile, luck or whatever. And it isn't only financial, people do it with mates, friends, fashion, and even (You)s.
Even rejecting the system (ie. asceticism) is still acknowledging it.

why do some boomers seem to think this unironically. crypto isnt specificaly a bet against the USA it is a bet that there will be currency crises in the world or specific use case tokens to do a wide range of shit. people still like the dollar and you can be bullish on both the US economy and crypto. why do you think such a large percent of ethereum is made up of dollar backed stablecoins in demand from people all over the world? if anythting it is a threat to other, smaler currencies and will only help the dollar.

But even without the child support he's barely making half of our minimum wage. He would be dirt poor without having to pay child support x3. How can Americans say that their country is 1st world when you can't even support yourself with a minimum wage job?

his gross pay is $8.5/hr, which is pretty much min wage. however, he only works part time, as evident by the HOURS - 50.0 notation. you're asking why a man cannot reasonably support himself working part time at min wage, regardless of child support court orders?
