Have you been affected by the cost of living crisis?

@revenant Winter is worse for me, I have the most inefficient method of heating, baseboard units.

@revenant me too, uk is expensive. My husband bought a condo in Malaysia. Our electricity bill is only £4 a month. Water £2 a month. Medical treatment is the most expensive.

@Arrow17 Wow I am jelous .

@Rhode57 our maintenance costs us £60 - £80 a month depending on exchange rate.

@Arrow17 wow

@NativePortlander1970 I have recently been recently a 27 square meter studio and it is very hot now. and my bill is WHAT ?????

worst of all I had no hot water and no electricity......I learned too late that I had to PAY EXTRA to have it installed. Otherwise you have to wait up 7 days....Had to pay extra 70 euros just to get it now..

I can take cold showers and all that no problem....but NO internet and having to buy candles ???

Oh mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn...I am living now in some third world country

@Arrow17 I want to go o Malaysia......

@revenant In Socialist France? That sounds super corporatist to me 😲

@revenant this is bullshit .👀. by that I mean it's ridiculous that it's the 21st century and we aren't fixing poverty and the standard of living - we are making it harder and worse 😒

@NativePortlander1970 super socialist France and people do not say boo....power cuts are due to Ukraine lol..I went to the job center and ...had to turn bad..all the computers are down.

Power cuts are regular and taken for granted...

@OogieBoogie we are going back to living in caves..

and they dare to call themselves First Developped Nations ? nothing to do with Indians here..

Everyday I am shocked...

@revenant I'm shocked too.
Something is gonna break ....it can't keep on like this .

I remember decades ago when I first saw the BladeRunner movie, I had this chill down my spine that THAT was what the future would probably be ....and now I'm even more convinced that's where we are heading .😒

@revenant This is the opposite of true Socialism, it's downright theft from those who rule.
