Wow, I'm curious how often your assumptions about others motivations puts you at odds with people? Your assumption that I made my comment to make people feel guilty is false. If you felt guilt and took offense, it's because you took it that way. I made that comment because I wanted people to feel grateful, you may say that as me wanting people to be complacent and just be "grateful they have a job". But that's not it either... we're all extremely lucky to be alive in a time where we can leverage our skills this easily and have all these platforms to coordinate and discuss how we can better our situation. We'll be just fine because we have power and influence, even if it isn't as much as we'd like. I don't feel guilty for what I have and what others don't, and I wouldn't want anyone else to either because guilt is useless. I have gratitude for all the opportunities and skills I have. I believe that feeling gratitude creates a mindset that is more productive and useful to actually changing things (including bettering our collective situation). In any case, this thread is probably over, so at this point neither of us are contributing to anything but building our own egos and I'm sure we've both got bigger things to attend to.
