It's because they spend it all on booze and weed.

I sometimes eat at a local restaurant called Casa Mia. My breakfast of fancy sausage, eggs and hash browns is over $20. Typically $25 and change after taxes and tip. This is pre pandemic too as I haven't eaten there in years.
I don't know about everyone else but coming from a pretty well off household we find that expensive. In fact $20+ for a breakfast is fucking nonsense IMO.
Yet any day during the university semester this place is PACKED with students sipping their coffees, eating their breakfast and loitering around typing away on their laptops.
It drives me up the fucking wall. This place is sooo overpriced and these kids have zero business eating there at this stage in life.
It makes it very hard for me to have sympathy for them.

America has many tuition free colleges, last I recall was 70, only reason students can't afford food is there living beyond their means and they are spending more money than they can afford. And now expecting others to cover there cost.

Who controls the federal reserve? Jews
Do you like the jewflation increasing costs year after year as they steal your wages through money printing? Of course, you don't see any of that money but YOU pay for the interests on it.
You know who is living beyond their means? Jews are.
