A well-paid peasant is still a peasant.

Remember when the big tech co's were conspiring together against their own employees?

"Apple and Google's wage-fixing cartel involved dozens more companies, over one million employees"

You're just buying into "The Man"'s propaganda to keep the working class divided, yo.

(It reminds me of a joke from Futurama. Leela gets a bunch of valuable stock and says, "Wow! I suddenly have an opinion about the capital gains tax!")




You need to spent a year of two being really middle class in the US.


I wasn't completely serious just then, eh?

Anyway, I am "really middle class".

Heck, I was homeless for about four or five years.

When poor serfs complain about less-poor serfs I like to point out that it's the lords they should be grumbling about, if anyone.
