    HOLD THE FUCK ON.

    “Pandemic Savings”

    That is a hell of a fuckin way to say “Profiteering”

      Hold up. Top 20% in US is only about $130k. Fairly easy for a dual income house to make.

      Not exactly the sort of people who are profiteering off others.

        I’m just below this bracket and have increased savings from the pandemic.

        I go to work everyday and don’t want to profiteer off anyone.
