It’s wild how conservatives have been led to believe that people shouldn’t make a livable wage doing whatever job needs to be done.
Not just conservatives. My stepdad is far from being one, but he lives in a fantasy reality where “no one in the 80s made a living or supported a family working fast food or running a register.” (I paraphrased a tiny bit, but this is a near-direct quote from him.)
In the 80s we were already on this path to severe underpayment. He was being fucked by the system already, it just wasn’t as obviously destructive so he took it with the lube they provided and said thank you. Now they can’t admit that’s what happened because they would have to admit were/are idiots getting willingly fucked by the business.
@Soup 🤔 is it obvious? seems obvious they’re funding both sides to me, but apparently not to you? Are you sure you’re looking in all directions or just where you’ve been told to look?
Seems like you are making his point for him. The people being funded in these articles are all conservatives. Some are Democrat neoliberal conservatives, but they are still business-class conservatives, regardless of party affiliation.
Conservatism is a plague of oppression that benefits the wealthy.
@Burn_The_Right you think those are the only articles with those stories about those banks? search for yourself, or don’t, but don’t act like I just gave you the contents of the internet.
I’m not trying to attack you at all. My apologies if it came off that way.
I am pushing back on the common idea that the majority of Dem leadership is non-conservative. The establishment Democrats are neoliberal conservatives who align pretty well with Reagan on most topics. We don’t have a viable progressive party at the moment, unfortunately, so we’re stuck with diet-conservatives in the Dem party and the few progressives within the party.
@Burn_The_Right i don’t feel attacked at all, I feel sorry that you still see two fake and gay oppositional sides that are holding hands behind the scenes, while they rob everyone blind.
The problem is that those Reaganomics affect younger much worse than older. He probably still did fine and that’s why he didn’t understand what others are complaining.

bankers don’t give a shit about red team or blue team, they’ve just been stealing from everyone. Good luck!
I mean they really, very obviously, do go in for conservatives. It’s their whole fucking thing.

Trump is the biggest RINO ever, he was a Democrat for years and most of the standard Republicans are pro WW3/Harris.
Baby Boomers really struggle to accept their enormous share of how we got to this place.
Invariably it’s some Millennial’s fault. And by Millennial, I mean anyone who looks under 40.
“makinh a living” and “surviving” are two different things
Ask him how those Reaganomics are working for him.
