Even with a working spouse, one income isn’t enough anymore. I really don’t know what people are supposed to do. Every industry except healthcare has been bleeding for months

Healthcare has also been bleeding. My local news has run multiple stories over the past few months of massive hospital layoffs.

Adding to this, rural hospitals are closing. Healthcare is hemorrhaging too.

Can’t find jobs to get paid and afford/qualify for healthcare which pays for health providers and medical practitioners.
Truly the Upside-Down States of Amerikkka.

The city next to mine had its entire hospital network shut down, just because some vulture capitalists saw that the price was less than the value of the real estate it owned. They bought the hospital network, spun off the real estate as a separate venture that then rented the properties to the hospitals, which bankrupted the hospitals leading to their closure.

This is why the corporate world, billionaires++, and their lackey governments hate Cuba, Venezuela and any other sovereign nation that tries to better provide for all their people. That and the resources for which they demand fair recompense, or refuse to sell if needed at home.
