[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These reactions- if you are someone who didn't value education or giving back, or even weigh the possible value of living in a city with stimulating cultural options, try and check your envy. OP is right that a civil servant makes at least tens of thousands of dollars less than comparable private sector employees. Some of you PPs are miserable and you deserve it. And the truth is there are many undereducated people in this country who are rightfully angry but need to turn a lot of that inward. [/quote] This is the issue. If you started out middle class in the Midwest and managed to get an Ivy League education and law degree, then a low six figures job you are doing better than almost all of the peers you started with, they are jealous. They and their kids do not have the same opportunities that you and yours have here and that feels bad, so they blame you for their problems.[/quote]
