    People have fridges and cell phones, big tvs and nicer cars, yes.

    But they don’t have education, healthcare, or housing. Things that were far more accessible 50 years ago.

      My dad was a janitor and my mom was a housewife. They had 7 kids. We grew up in a five bedroom house (which they paid off when I was youngish). I have a baschelors of science and a masters degree and barely can afford a 2 bedroom condo and yes im doing very well compared to my friends. Oh he also got paid time and a half for working off hours (even if he had taken a day off during that week) and on weekends except sundays and holidays when it was DOUBLE TIME!

    Says the man with enough money for hundreds of lifetimes and got said money by exploiting the people who actually do all the work he profits from.

    Eat the rich, feed the poor.

    This is obviously AI-generated. The uncanny valley eyes give it away. The tech is getting pretty close, though!

    I think what he means is that everyone he knows is better off than they used to be, and all this chatter by the nameless riffraff of poors is irritating to him…

    What a dick.

    People used to be able to buy a house and raise a family of four on the income from a single boring factory job.

    Just what I’d expect to hear from the designer of Munger Hall, the most dystopian dorm yet!

      4500 students housed in one building and 94% of them would not even have a window to look out of…and he seems to think it will be like “being on a cruise ship”

      That should end well
