Video: Nurse Breaks Down Describing Struggle in Biden’s America Despite Her & Husband ‘Making Good Money’
"Somebody has to do something to change this because I make good money, he makes good money, we don't live above our means but we live paycheck-to-paycheck."
A nurse and mother’s rant about her financial struggle under Joe Biden’s policies is going viral on social media.
The full-time Pennsylvania critical care nurse and mom-of-two Mackenzie Moan described how her and her husband still lived “paycheck-to-pacheck” despite “making good money.”
“I feel like my husband and I are doing everything right,” she said as she teared up in a video posted to Tik Tok. “We both have good jobs. I’m a registered nurse, I work full time, he works full time.”

“We just got paid this past Friday and we paid the mortgage, bought some groceries, put some gas in the car, and guys, it is Tuesday and we have like $200-$300 to last until next Friday.”
“We don’t live in a big house,” she said. “Somebody has to do something to change this because I make good money, he makes good money, we don’t live above our means but we live paycheck-to-paycheck.”
“I’m in school full time, I work full time, and he works more than full time, he works overtime every week. I don’t know what to do. I’m so stressed out, this isn’t how it’s supposed to be,” she added.
Moan went on to explain how she became disillusioned with the pursuit of the American Dream.
“I thought I’d be able to pay my bills and not have to check my bank account if my kids say, ‘Mom, can we go to the movies this weekend?'” said.
“I thought we’d be comfortable and we’re not, at all. Growing up we were told, ‘Go to college, get a degree, work to support your family.’ Here we are. Did that, now what?” she asked.
She added that “just because she is stressed out” doesn’t mean that she’s not also “thankful for what she does have.”
Young Americans in 2023 are financially struggling in the Fed-driven inflationary economy, with no end in sight. That’s partly why the polls show Joe Biden’s approval plummeting.
