Right now inflation here is 16.6% but I'm lucky to keep my bills low and get a decent exchange rate.
I've spent some time reading through the Antiwork subreddit, at first they just come off as whiny socialists complainers, but if you dig deeper, you can see there are some serious problems with corporation's treatment and pay, and it certainly hasn't gotten better since I was a civilian back in 97.
