#poverty is expensive

"Being #poor now leads to being more poor later. Can't pay to clean your teeth? Next year, pay for a root canal. Can't pay for a new mattress? Next year, pay for back surgery. Can't pay to get that lump checked out? Next year, pay for stage 3 cancer. Poverty charges interest."

An image of a capitalist pig looking at a full boat of migrants trying to immigrate to America. The capitalist pig says to them, "We need to worry about our own homeless. We can't take any more people."

Below, the same capitalist pig is looking at a bunch of homeless people sleeping on a dirty floor. The capitalist pig says to them, "Get a job, you lazy fucks!"

The sales have particularly affected low-income people, who have lost jobs after they were unable to get their cars back.
