Ehh I don't think many people hate their jobs or pay that much joo

just the people living on minimum wage alone is a fairly large force

and minimum wage is damn poverty

people working multiple jobs just to make ends meet

pouring every last penny into rent

and for what

Yeah but the middle class is probably bigger unless the Democrats managed to smuggle enough poor people in to create artificial wealth inequality

what happens when it hits a breaking point?

Most people on minimum wage are like working a summer job in high school

Or intellectually challenged

that's incredibly far from the truth

https://www.bls.gov/opub/reports/minimum-wage/2017/home.htm

only half of minimum wage workers are under 25

only 4% of them don't have high school diplomas

Half of all min wage workers are under 25

that's 50% spanning the entire rest of the age demographics

a pretty damn big percentage

18-25 (50%) 25-70 (50%)

that's not "most" by any definition

doesnt like

30 something percent of the population live in or near poverty

So, a 7 year span vs a 45 year span and the 7 year span has half is what I'm saying

poverty rates are at 14% on average, up to 20% in some states

that's millions of people

how long until they stand up and say "we can't take it anymore"?

Yeah but it means 86% of people or 80% are not in poverty

these are people with almost nothing left

nothing to lose but their chains, as it were

and the most dangerous type of person is someone with more to die for than to live for

and guess what?

You can't really have a revolution with 16% of the population

we have over 40 million people like that

you think it's just people in poverty who will revolt?

yeah they'll start

but then it'll be the people just above the poverty line

and then just above that

people realizing "this is a thing that can happen and is happening"

Well like I'm pretty much in the very middle, (52% of white male income) and I feel like I have a lot of money... Just need a girlfriend...

I mean I am 52 percentile

another world's possible, y'know

the automation we're all so afraid of could go towards helping everyone and not just a handful of people
