The reason you have less money isn’t the previous administration, or the immigrants in your town, or the single mothers who need help, or the programs that help the kids with special needs. The reason you have less money is because the people with the most money decided you were less than them. - ThreadSky

Caste system in full view

And your employer is not paying you a living wage. There's a good chance you're probably not getting raises that keep up with the cost of inflation/the cost of living, given the economy now relies heavily on the top 10% to keep consuming: https://www.wsj.com/economy/consumers/us-economy-strength-rich-spending-2c34a571?st=xiWveL&reflink=mobilewebshare_permalink

The reason there are people that can decide we "were less than them", is because we all allow it.

Most humans enable the mill/billionaire "class" because they aspire to it.

We created this, and we keep pushing responsibility onto the addicts.

We can #unite or go extinct with them.

To be more explicit, the reason you have less money is that two of the main ways people become billionaires is by “reducing labor costs” and “cutting taxes” (for the rich), both of which mean taking money out of your pocket to put in their pocket.

You are about to have even less money....in order to provide a tax cut for billionaires.

And the people with even less money, are so uneducated that they voted for it.

Yes, the owners of the Corporations have suppressed wages even as productivity has improved. Corporations exist for 1 reason, to return value ($$$) to the shareholders. Without unions and strong representation we (workers) are a disposable commodity.

This. Only reason you get anything more than Hungerlohn from your employer is the other people and other employees.

You are not that special.

Americans need more Unions. Americans need more Welfare State.

And don’t pay their fair share of taxes.

They get the most exemptions from the government while hurting people who need help from the government. It’s the height of hypocrisy and greed.

Americans are pissed off at the world the United States created after WWII, in the interests of keeping their dumbasses safe and full of cheap shit.

Mind boggling stupidity. And none of it by accident.
