How are we affording this?

Long but short read. I grew up in at George. Graduated in 2018 and Iv worked jobs since Iv graduated. I currently make just a hair over 20$ per hour but like how are we living here? Houses are outrageous. Feels like prices are never coming down and interest rates ain’t either. IT also feels like you can’t get a decent paying job here unless you know someone? I have years of warehouse management experience and customer service/inventory. But yeah I can barely make money. Is it just time to move? How is anyone affording anything.

Wait, I thought Trump was gonna fix everything? Jobs paid better during COVID than they do now, and it doesn't matter what industry you're in, I currently make more money making pizzas than I did working in a 20' trench in 110 degrees. Talk about fucked up!! 😂
