As someone who belongs to several minority and marginalized groups and relies on benefits and support to be able to live, yes my life will change day to day. You're either very self centered and feeling like you're part of the "in group" or just uninformed. It's not unreasonable to think that my life could be totally upended for reasons completely out of my control by the end of the year. This is all completely ignoring the shift in the culture and the possibility of my blue state going red. Things are about to get bad for many people, very fast.
