pr this is not about a poor me. I am doing well and will cope. You will do well and will cope. Many others will do fine and cope with it as well.
Many will not. You can cry a river about other people in other countries and how bad off they have it and they all do have it bad.
However to make a blanket statement that we will all cope with it is shortsighted. You know that. No we will all not cope with it. I don’t have to bring numbers. You know as well as I do there are plenty of people on the edge in OUR country. If you need numbers then go look it up.
Did I ever say poor me? Did I ever complain about myself or my family? No I have not.
When you grew up in Ohio and you had hard times tell me this:
How would you/did you feel if someone who was much better off then you made flippant statements about how you will cope, about how you should just go buy some oatmeal and stretch your dollar?
Would you be okay with that? Really?
D you have kids? You ever feed them the same damn meal every single day? You think they would like that? I don’t have to do that and will not have to do that but I sure the hell wouldn’t make a recommendation to someone who was not in my shoes to do that and they will cope and be okay.
