Inflation is 15%.

This keeps you in the fiat mines, grinding out day after day to make up that lost buying power.

The work detracts from your ability to read, to care for your family, to think, to engage with the arts. It makes you bitter, and then you die having lived less of your life.

The extra work feeds the FIRE industry who bleed humanity. Parasites on a social system meant to support the people.

Preserve your effort.
