This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You can't plan for the future without enough money. A young man that wants to start a family can't even afford to rent a 1 bedroom apartment, let alone purchase a family home to raise children.

Ultimately this issue, like almost all economic and societal issues, is a result of growing wealth inequality.

Hard agree. It's not just that wealth inequality breeds these issues; they're being synthetically exacerbated by social media algorithms.
