Our groceries cost as much as ordering in food did 5 years ago.

We barely did as it was too expensive, the future needs some drastic adjustment otherwise some bad shit is going to happen.

Bad shit is already happening. How many more wars need to flare up, how many more inches does the sea need to rise, how many more acres of forest need to burn, how many more mass shootings, how many more people need to reach a point where working a full time job isn't enough to cover rent... I could easily go on. This isn't a future thing anymore. This is all happening now.
