    Well no shit. Basic survival is taking a good 80% of the paycheck. Probably CC and other debt takes the remaining. Maybe a few bucks left for a fancy coffee or red bull. Ain’t got no time or money for Healthcare or vacations.

    That’s because they are. For over half the population, and many others are borrowing heavy and can’t really afford it either but are still in denial, “playing the game”!
