> if I was a white and rich guy in the US I probably wouldn't have to ever talk about politics. Semi-rich. (What do you call a 1-10%er? depending on the year since biz owner problems) Politics affects us sooo much. My wife/biz owner is paid based on how much the government gives her for a specific healthcare treatment. Since 2019 the payments actually went down. Meanwhile the AMA got their physicians raises... Not to mention, there is an upcoming regulation that affects my physical product... Oh and even though we are well-off, I still hate paying 30k/yr whenever we give birth to 1 child. And taxes are insane. You make decent money and the taxes are absurd. Meanwhile if you invest your money and don't do anything, its a mere 15% capital gains tax. Seems like the system prioritizes the 0.01% and actively prohibits the 1-5% from breaking out of it. Not to mention economics. Interest rates basically decide what we do next, rather than sound strategy. Tariffs changed things back in 2018... Basically everything is economics on my end. Social policy seems so obviously silly to me, but its easy to say that as a married white dude.
