So you vote Republican?
Automation is the death to many high paying careers as well as the lower ones. They just too many people in this society.
And all of those people have been conditioned to accept their circumstances. Companies can pay whatever they want. They would pay $5.15 an hour if most applicants accepted that reality.
Wealth redistribution to the top 10% is at an all time high. The "middle class" just accept that fact. We are now living in a "shareholder" society where people accumulate wealth (via the stock market) off the backs of working class people who either get paid scraps or pay interest on credit cards, or pay bank fees or simply "consume" goods and services.
To put things in perspective.
In 1997 Bill Gates was the richest man in America with a net worth of $38 Billion. Warren Buffet was second at $23 Billion
In 2017 the top 10 richest Americans are have a net worth of over $40 Billion. The top 5 have a net worth of over $50 Billions
The top 20 richest Americans have a combined net worth of $916.6 Billion dollars
But the government can't raise the minimum wage to $15.00 an hour? But they want to lower their taxes

You know how many games,parties, p*ssy I missed out on watching my cousin or uncle bad ass kid as a 15-16 year old
We're going to keep denying it until its dead in our face like the last recession. There are not enough truly middle-class positions outside of STEM and RNs, etc for the Undergrad pileup occurring. I know plenty of people in my building with Bachelors, some Masters, all in the same ~28k-37k payscale that I am in, even in their 30's with 5+ years experience. I already see these positions on the chopping block within the next 12+ months, mine included, so I'm already formulating my 90 day plan to make another move. People think these CEO's won't close shop on us to save half-a-million or more in profit, you gotta be kidding.
Even the STEM majors are low balling people. Degrees and other certifications means less and less as more people get them.
Why yall nikkas constantly pushing STEM and medical
