Employees who live with rich parents are not part of the working class.

Retail and fast food jobs should be automated out of existence. The employees who remain should get paid $30 per hour and have three day work weeks, but they should have expectations to match and be on call to come in within a few hours at any time.

A retail employee who makes $15 per hour makes over $2,000 per month after deductions. If they live with their parents, all of that is disposable income.

If you work (actual work, not having dinner with other companies’ CEO) you are working class.

Even if you earn money through your salary, you are working class, even if that salary is 200k. There are people out there with literal billions of $. You already know the difference between a million and a billion, now watch the difference between a billion and 200k.

The problem is not your surgeon or boss or whatever, they all work 9-5 like you do, the problem is the yatch owners.
