Because it is so expensive to just live, people’s time is extremely limited. I don’t blame people that take care of their wants in that limited time off.

Like many people have already posted, if you didn’t spend all that mental (and physical) energy just scraping by, you will most likely have energy (and motivation) to take care of your health better.

That and it seems like everyone has depression or some sort of mental health ailment these days due to all the stresses that come with being poor.
