People Are Giving Up Because America’s Terrible Cost of Living Crisis

Millions of Americans are quietly reaching a breaking point — not because they failed, but because the cost of living has turned everyday survival into a constant crisis. In this video, we expose why people are giving up, cutting back, downsizing, refusing bills, and abandoning the idea of a “normal life” altogether.

Housing costs are exploding faster than wages. Groceries feel like luxury items. Health insurance premiums rival rent payments. Utility bills, insurance, transportation, and basic necessities are draining paychecks before the month even begins. What used to be a middle-class lifestyle now requires six figures — and even that no longer feels safe.

This isn’t about poor budgeting or bad choices. This is about math that no longer works. When rent consumes 40–60% of income, when food inflation outpaces raises, when debt becomes a requirement instead of a tool, people don’t just struggle — they psychologically shut down. That’s the real crisis unfolding across America right now.

This video connects the dots between inflation, wage stagnation, housing shortages, corporate profit concentration, debt dependence, and the silent mental toll this system is taking on everyday people. It explains why burnout is spreading, why hope is collapsing, and why more Americans are choosing exit, refusal, or radical reset over playing a game they can’t win.

If you’ve felt exhausted, angry, numb, or trapped — you’re not alone. This documentary breaks through the gaslighting and explains what’s really happening beneath the headlines.
