They keep raising prices, stating that it’s due to inflation, but then they keep having record profits.

Meanwhile, the average American can barely afford rent or food nowadays.

What are we to do? Vote? I have been but that doesn’t seem to do much since I’m just voting for a representative that makes the actual decisions.

    … Several hundred? LOL

    To go to most countries, you’ll be spending tens of thousands just to get there. I don’t know where you’re getting your numbers from, but it’s not reality.

      No you won’t. It’s much cheaper to travel than you are pretending.

      My numbers are from experience and current ticket prices.

      It’s under $300 right now to fly to most countries in South America or Europe, the Bahamas, under $500 to fly anywhere in Asia and this is the most expensive time of the year because of the lunar New Year, my ticket last month was 270 usd from new York to Hong Kong.
