I am an immigrant and have a large family within a community that would be classified as "lower-income" and I'm pretty in-tune with their perspective. I support my family financially now, and I will be supporting my parents in their retirement. I grew up poor and I understand the anxiety and stress that comes with it. I just recently spoke with my grandmother who is on a fixed income and is having trouble paying for basic necessities because of the recent inflation. I'm not blind to these struggles. I'm not saying everybody is doing great. I'm saying that if you look at the stats of average American's personal finances, they are in pretty good shape. That doesn't mean there isn't a decent chunk of the population that is struggling. That doesn't mean there isn't a housing crisis across the country. That doesn't mean inflation isn't hitting these lower-income groups harder. These issues are very real and are a major part of what is making everyone anxious. But in the context of the conversation, people are not getting ready to war with each other.
