    Nope. If people having been living the exact same without changing many of their habits then it is absolutely fair that they would also be struggling paycheck to paycheck. They’re effected just as the rest are. We need to focus on the jackass causing us to turn on eachother. We shouldn’t be comparing ourselves because there are people who consider 30k/y as living lavish and think they also shouldn’t be complaining.

      If you can’t play for the future you will be poor. I owe you no sympathy

      You’re one of the richest people on the planet, by default, and I think you should pay more in taxes and it should be on you to figure out your finances, because you’re fucking rich and you just don’t realize it.

      The most wealthy places on earth should not be held up as the norm and most people should not live in those places. We should tax all of those people excessively and they should not have guaranteed wealth.
