Because honestly, that’s the only explanation left. Someone, somewhere, must have taken a giant loan from Jupiter, and now the rest of us are paying interest by skipping breakfast and reusing tea bags.
Everything is more expensive these days. Rent, groceries, fuel, even that one sad packet of chips that’s 90% air and 10% disappointment. Meanwhile, our salaries are moving at the speed of a government office printer!
But every time you ask “Why is this happening?”, some expert on TV says words like “global recession,” “unstable markets,” or my personal favorite, “economic uncertainty,” as if that explains why one tomato now costs more than my self-worth.
And don’t even get me started on the solutions. “Cut down on non-essentials,” they say. Bro, the only non-essential thing I had left was hope. That too is gone now.
Governments keep blaming each other, billionaires are busy flying to space for fun, and we’re stuck here wondering if we’ll need a loan just to buy detergent.
At this point, “middle class” is just a polite way of saying “financially exhausted, emotionally damaged, but still pretending everything is fine on LinkedIn.”
P.S. If you know who borrowed the money from Jupiter, please ask them to return it. Or at least send us free groceries. We’re not asking for much, just dignity and Doritos.
Stay tuned amigos! More rants coming soon, or maybe not. Just keeping it real.
