I think the other thread here is even outside your average minimum wage job the link between work and reward is broken. Holders of capital can speculate on property/real estate and make more (illiquid) money than a worker in a full year. Then to add insult to injury the worker hands over some large sum of their wage to said speculator. And is generally treated like crap into the bargain. When idle parasitism makes more money than working and indeed forces people to work harder for longer, discontent from the generally capital poor workers is unsurprising.
