I keep hearing from Trump's administration that "everything is historic" but this year, food, rent, and gas has all gone up. My roommate (mom) is depressed and losing hope. To be short, we both share an apartment. I've been losing hope. I cannot find and stable jobs, nor can she, and the cost of living could literally put us out of this place. We've been praying to God to protect Trump so he could make america great and affordable again. Does anyone here have any solutions on how to survive in this damn economy?

He said he’d have electric bills down by 50%.
When does that happen?
Yeah, not gonna happen. Maybe at the raw level but once it gets to the consumer energy companies aren’t going to chop prices in half. They have employees and regulation fees and pensions to fund. The current prices are here to stay.
You can’t go to a business and say, “listen do it for the common good, just reduce your prices.” The economy doesn’t work that way.
