You don’t actually know what you’re talking about since, yes, they were my “class”… indeed my relatives.
Society can’t function without these jobs. It’s precisely why the jobs are important, why they aren’t demeaning; why people should take pride and be given respect for doing them.
Complaining that working jobs in the sun, or cleaning toilet is beneath you is what I have a problem with, and is what these people are saying.
I think we’re on the same side. There are people who think being a janitor is beneath them and they would never do it… unless of course they were paid a CEOs wages for it.
And that not hyperbole, that’s the hyper distorted reality I think some people are living in.
If you think everyone should be compensated the same, then I don’t think there’s common ground.
If you think there needs to be an increase in minimum wage. Better working conditions, then I couldn’t agree more.
But those things aren’t accomplished by complaining life is unfair. That unskilled jobs pay less than being a software developer. They’re accomplished by working hard, getting out what you put in, and organizing, voting and working for change.
Progressivism is a constant struggle. It doesn’t come for free and that’s life.
