40% of Americans couldn’t cover a $1,000 unexpected expenditure. That’s not just an economic disadvantage; it’s a source of chronic tension & anxiety. If our political establishment wants to help with the mental health crisis it might start by not leaving so many in such despair.

As always you are right on point, I struggle been able to make spirituality have a bigger role in my life and while I consider myself an atheist there's no doubt in my mind and in my heart that there's a lot of things we don't yet understand and many connections we don't realize

Yes ... you're right ... it's to bad the politicians don't have the capacity or the Being to think like you ...
Welcome to our lives and I bet if we really study that 40% statistic we could find some research showing larger percentages with different samples and analysis. Anyhoo most of us are one paycheck from the streets. #ElClasico #AutoClub400 #TeamPete

I believe that number is any too high. Realistically that would be closer to $500.00

I had an unexpected 50 dollars come out of my account today, and I honestly felt so much anxiety from it!!! #RealChangeNow

Yes. How can anyone think the healthcare system should remain the same, when faced with coronavirus...time off work +costly testing + meds without extra money in the bank. Who will help the uninsured, or insufficiently insured?
