Recession

How the economy is affecting us.

Let me just say, at the end of the day, with my knee surgery co-pay cost and costs associated with physical therapy, even with some help from the you-know-who's, I'm still out a high percentage of my regular income plus some savings. Granted, I don't make much money, but I'm not exactly poor or destitute and I don't have a family. Part of the problem is living in Santa Monica and having a super good surgery center - something that might be a considered a good problem. But shit, one doesn't need to be Karl Marx to think what good is something if you can't really afford it.
