This is quite an anti-worker comment. "They still have cereal and fast food and they're not getting shot so they're fine." LOL.

- Goronmon 2y agoIt's more that we shouldn't pretend that things could not be worse, which is what the person they were replying to was trying to say. Because things can definitely get worse.
- bill_joy_fanboy 2y ago> Because things can definitely get worse. Absolutely. If people don't want things to get worse, then the abuse and disenfranchisement of the American worker must end. That's kind of where we are at this point.
- rubiquity 2y agoYou're both painting polarized views. I'm from the rust belt where many of these disenfranchised can be found. Manufacturing isn't coming back. Tariffs are only going to increase the gap between the haves and the have-nots.
- galangalalgol 2y agoI think the point was that these tariffs are hurting stocks because it is hurting workers, which hurts consumer spending. These tariffs are against workers primarily. The next time you see someone digging up a water main check their boots, the supervisor might be wearing Carhartt and Redwing, if they are a hipster, but the people who are muddy are typically wearing much cheaper imported equipment.
