[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The pandemic has made people very selfish. Using the reasoning in this thread, one could question almost any public/social expenditure. Why should old people pay taxes for your kid’s education? Why should today’s workers fund Social Security for old people? Why should US taxpayers pay for the defense of Ukraine? I hope people on this thread realize that their isolationist arguments are at the core of social disintegration. They may think that they’ve isolated themselves in a larger home in the distant suburbs, working from home visiting the local deli, but their retirement funds are still in the stock market and their neighborhood isn’t that far from a decaying city. We’re all more interconnected than most seem to realize. [/quote]

Lol. The selfish thing is forcing middle-class workers to waste 1-2 hrs of their day commuting to save the giant corporate interests of commercial real estate. It’s just not a tenable moral claim, I’m sorry. [/quote]

I can’t believe anyone is trying to disguise basically bailouts of the CRE industry on the backs of already underpaid (compared to skilled private sector peers) government employees as some sort of sacrifice for the greater good.

What’s next, should we all go back to using coal because it’s not fair that new technologies change things? [/quote]

Right? I have to care about the "greater good" by burning gas to get to my office that isn't anywhere near metro or food businesses anyway, but the rest of the country doesn't have to "sacrifice" by paying me enough to live near work. I would LOVE to have a short commute. I'd LOVE it. But I don't get paid enough because that's already a sacrifice government employees sign up for. [/quote]
