I remember when Biden took office, fuel prices shot up within days. Personally, the Biden presidency has not benefitted me at all. However, I feel I have been more at a disadvantage ever since.

• The tech recession really started to take effect. I am a software engineer. Due to the mass layoffs in the tech industry, it is much more challenging to land a new role.
• The cost of rent skyrocketed within a year of Biden taking office. A one bedroom apartment that once cost $800 a month rose to $1,300 a month.
• Homeownership became more unobtainable. Being almost 30 and wanting to own my first home, I was outpriced. For example, looking at the history of these homes, a condo that once sold for under $200k in 2021 is now selling for over $350k in 2024.
• Interest rates have increased for mortgage loans, car loans, or any type. of loan/line of credit.
• I feel my career has not taken off. I have employment instability everywhere I go.
• I am having difficulties obtaining affordable mental healthcare or any healthcare for that matter.
• I feel more strapped financially even for just groceries. I spent about $8 today on just 2 items: a tube of Pillsbury orange roles and a jar of store brand apple butter.
• My overall stress levels have increased.

These are just examples of issues I have encountered on a personal basis.

This by definition means it would be harder for white people to succeed.

Feel free to be brutally honest. Just curious. It's understandable if you don't want minorities to succeed. I am very open to hearing your opinions
