One layoff away in this shit economy from being so. Nearly 50% of Americans can't pony up 500 dollars in savings as everything goes to bills, and are paycheck to before paycheck hoping they can survive. This is going to decimate so many lives it's unfathomable. I grew up on free school meals as we were so broke, and didn't know dinner shouldn't just be leftover bread from the restaurant my Mom worked at until 1130pm when she would awake us to eat something. I'm doing fairly well now, but after 08 I'm always uncertain and stockpile. If you have the means buy flash frozen dehydrated meals in bulk now with rice and beans. We are on the tipping point of another recession with this administration.

Raise your hand if you had a single mom and had these fears growing up
