Who the fuck is voting no and can you please give me your money? Sincerely someone who makes about $17,000 a year
Someone who makes $65k may not be "as poor" as someone who makes $17k a year but that doesn't make them rich. You're both still pretty damn poor.
They're only making about $31 an hour. This is how much my mom makes as a nurse, an "essential worker."
She has just enough money to pay her bills. She lives in a tiny, crappy house. Her car is ancient and falling apart. She doesn't have enough money to pay for all the healthcare she needs, including $20,000 of dental work she can never afford.
When I lived with her and she was a single mom, we could never afford the doctor and could barely afford food sometimes.
She will never be able to retire.
How tf do you think that is rich?
Frankly, my mom is still poor.
Your enemy isn't the person makes $65,000, or even some doctor or lawyer making $165,000. It's the people making billions off of everyone else's labor.
