Sir, this is a Culver’s
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.
Did the person who made this consciously fuck up the grammar? It’s so bad it’s hard to believe otherwise. The idiocy required for any of those options is disgusting.
This election is about the easier to revolt against of two evils
When the majority gets more money companies raise prices and you feel poor anyway. Mass wage increase sounds nice in the short term but leads to all the inflation articles you’ve read recently. Money feeds up. This can be prevented by reduced demand for goods and services. As in, when you obtain disposable income you… Don’t dispose of it.
Energy, living costs it can’t be done. Necesities. But a lot of areas you can make real change by voting with your dollar. For example, if you don’t think the new iphone should cost 2 grand because that’s absurd then don’t validate the company’s plan by buying it. Reduced demand causes reduced price until we find a balance. That’s how this horrible evil capitalism is supposed to work.
One of the problems is we as consumers suck at voting. We want the new iphone. So a majority of us buy it anyway. On credit. And Apple raises the price next year becase “it worked last time”
Believes this argument, stagnates wages for decades
Prices go up anyway because corporate greed and infinite growth are the actual driving forces of inflation
Corporate greed is part of what I laid out. Inflation is complex and happens regardless. Certain things can have a larger impact on the rate of inflation. Introducing monetary supply in the form of wages or stimulus is one of those things. I’m all for higher wages. What I am trying to get across is that we also need to recognize the impact we have. Corporate greed exists. People want money. It makes sense. It is further driven by us having the money to take in the first place. If the product or service doesn’t get purchased the price lowers until it does and/or the business fails. All I am saying is we as consumers could do a better job being mindful of this. We don’t have very much control in this system, but we do have some. Of course we’re not united in this so it probably doesn’t matter. If you don’t buy the 2k phone your neighbor probably will.
