Yeah, life without money is very dangerous. My model of life is there are 3 engines: money, physical health, mental health. If two go down the last one is doomed. If money engine goes down, it's REALLY hard to keep physical and mental health going. Imagine, going exercise every day while recovering or preventing mental health to go down .. and while trying to start the money engine. This shit is brutal!
Individualism in the US also blames the victim for not pulling their bootstraps up hard enough. My hope is the social safety net can be rebuilt once this populism wave has passed
