Public transportation is expensive.

Public transportation is cheaper than cars, but it's gotten pretty ridiculous since I've moved to the city, with the cost up by about 20%, even though wages have pretty much remained flat.

So, a monthly pass is around what it costs for an eighth of my rent (and rent already takes up more than half my income).

Between that and gas and electricity and rent going up, it really is a noticeable increase in cost-of-living.

And, I don't think the Republican tax bill did shit for me, or for most other people who are experiencing the same thing.

In a way, it's good for my candidacy, since it makes people want shit to work for them more.
