20% to a car payment is stupid
Yes, the used car market is full of predators charging 200% more than what a junker is worth because there's nothing stopping them. And I also agree that keeping the minimum wage literal decades behind productivity breeds an environment where people are assigned a made up number that tells banks it's ok to gouge this person on interest rates. Full agreement with you there.
And necessary in many situations.
It's more expensive to move somewhere a car isn't necessary.
Have you seen the prices of used cars lately?
Dude you could have just answered "no, I haven't seen the prices of used cars lately."
