This is a tough story and what it doesn't point out (again, normalizing this) is our #CarCulture.

How much of her monthly bills go towards a car (which is the unexpected expense causing her financial difficulty at the moment).
Corrupt politicians of former eras locked us into a built form that enslaves us to the car, ensuring roughly 1/3 of our incomes go towards car makers and oil and gas companies.

Current politicians are in no hurry to break us free from this enslavement to car maker profits. Articles like this don't point out how messed up this is. It simply normalizes a single industry taking a huge chunk of our money as the way of life.
