I drive 35 to 40k miles a year for my job. I only get new because I’d rather pay and have a driving car than pay and have one in the shop for the same price.
My car was 40 and full electric so I don’t have to buy gas and my fiance’s car was 25k. Those two car payments and and insurance we pay around 1500 a month.
But it’s not the cars that’s a problem. I choose that luxury. Be it for practicality or showing off. What I don’t choose is to live ina 600 squarefoot Apartment for a thousand dollars more than it should be. Or daycare for 250 a WEEK!
Even if I lowered the price of the card for 500 a month, 800 a months it wouldn’t help.

Class solidarity is vital, but I really just can’t sympathize with your poor financial choices. Money is not magic.
Thank you for holding him accountable for how he wastes his money.
He’s part of a culture where those who have more, spend more. He would be doing the exact same shit as our oppressors if he was in their position.
This is how we change our culture.
