I admire the effort. Being poor is expensive.
I'd love to see big-picture legislation (like GDPR is for privacy) which could take a bite out of all the tiny cuts of financial mini-hardship that poor people face every day. I just have no idea what it'd look like. Maybe there's nothing better we can do than 100 little laws like this one.
I encourage everyone to try living one day like they're down to their last $20 and have to buy some things they need (pretend you don't have a wallet full of plastic cards and a phone full of passwords). Nearly every time you go to buy something, you'll encounter a situation where you could save money in the long run if only you had a little more to spend today.
