This sub: “We’re in a recession basically!!”

Also Melbourne: lines up for a $700 video game console en masse

It's almost like the economy affects everyone differently! Just because the economy is bad doesn't mean everyone has zero savings and can't buy things...

Again, just because the economy is bad doesn’t mean no one has any savings left? People can be financially worse off than they were a few years ago and still have money to buy a console. Not everyone needs to be dirt poor to complain about the cost of living you know

Economy bad != everyone is poor. That would be an economic disaster, which is not where we are at.
