Bro I'm going through the same thing. The value of money and the rewards from society have completely skewed off a cliff. What's the fucking point of working hard when it's clearly a carrot on a stick with a sadist at the reigns. You can do everything right and still just fall off the ladder and end with nothing. Now we get to pay taxes to a truly regressive system that takes money from the poorest and puts it in the hands of the richest. While the value of the dollar collapses into stagnant incomes.
