I'm always amazed at how so many people complain about money, while they live in a single bedroom with no roommates.
I have friends who live paycheck to paycheck, and they pay $500-$1k more a month in rent than I do while they make much less than me, just insane.
- MomoXenosaga 3y agoIf you follow that ridiculous thinking you can justify anything on the bases off "someone in India has it worse". How about we reject poverty and feel a deep sense of shame that such a thing exists in a G20 country?

Does the UK have no one who would enjoy a free apartment like his to themselves? I'm not against supporting those in need but in my opinion if a system has universal value then those who make it possible should get a free priority slot in it.
