A year ago I was unemployed and single. My answer then would have been considerably different than now. I’m much happier with my life but the world is now much worse off and I’m currently struggling to reconcile my radical progressive views with the desire for a comfortable life. I’m still strongly of the opinion that our society (in the US at least) is beyond repair, but I’m less eager to see the reset button pressed. I’m fortunate to be in a blue state (though like all blue states, it gets real red outside the city limits), so my plan at the moment is to pretend the federal government doesn’t exist.
