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.

    Here it is illegal for anyone who isn’t a licensed electrician to install anything permanent and electrical, such as a ceiling fan

    My father was a freakin electrician and I helped him with many jobs over the years, but I’m not allowed to install a ceiling fan, even if there’s existing wiring…
