it's possible, but let's not ignore the heritable / family aspect of this. In my family noone has done unskilled labor going back to 19th century at least and possibly earlier. So it's fair to say I am not in danger of that. But I agree with your point that a bit of compassion from those more fortunate wouldn't hurt
- magic_beans 11y agoAbsolutely not fair to say you're not in danger of some catastrophic life event that'll force you into unskilled labor.
- vasilipupkin 11y agothe probability of me personally having to do unskilled labor is so excruciatingly low that we can ignore it for all practical purposes. Doesn't change the need for empathy, etc.
