9. We can't have nice things

They’re cutting out affordable vacations for the middle and working class. They want us to be slaves, working 5+ days a week and not enjoying the beauty this country has to offer. I worked for a Fortune 500 bank in the early 2000s, to go on my 10 days of vacation per year, I had to be within constant contact. They weren’t happy when I went to a small cabin in the Smokies for a week.

I imagine we’ll see more of this…..sell off land and leave enough for high end resorts for the uber wealthy.
