[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These responses are tone-deaf. These are people touting their own reasonableness and sensibility and overlooking their extraordinary privilege to have jobs that allow them to save so very much. People living hand to mouth can be as sensible as they want but that kind of money is never going to pile up.[/quote] Getting educated, finding and then keeping a job by working like a dog is not a privilege. Sitting on your butt playing your PS4 while drawing government checks is. Cut the rainbow BS.[/quote] For one government checks have never been enough to sit on ones butt and play PS4. For two , no socio economic group has the monopoly of working 'like a dog' . If anything , the laborers whose sweat and muscles pave the streets , pick the fruits in farms, drive your kids school buses,change your grand parents diapers in nursing homes and so on . These people although providing extremely critical labor aren't able to sit pretty in $800k homes . You're the perfect definition of morally bankrupt , that education and job hasn't stopped you from a having a shitty ideology . [/quote] Seriously? The problem with you Liberals is that you're so blind to your own ugly judgment and higher-than-thou pronouncements. You're so convinced you're right and your liberal education brainwashing is the Truth that you're prepared to call names and cast judgment on anyone who dares to disagree. Frankly, plenty of people work like dogs. Some make lots of money on 90 hour work weeks. Some make less money on 90 hour work weeks. But none of those people are the ones referred to here who collect checks and don't work. And don't pretend you know so much that you can say people "never" do that. Plenty do. You just choose to ignore it because it's not in keeping with your rainbow unicorn BS.[/quote] cmon - i'm not the poster you're responding to, but you can be privileged AND work like a dog. It's not mutually exclusive. Yes, me and DH work a lot and save a lot. BUT we also were lucky too - born to educated parents with good prenatal care, nurturing families, book- and museum-filled childhoods, safe, clean communities, best public schools and parents paid for college and grad school. That certainly put us in a great position to be able to work hard and be successful. So yes we work very hard - but so do plenty of other people who make way way less than we do.[/quote] Frankly? Kind of sick and tired of bandwagon Liberals tossing around and over-using hot button words like "privilege." So much guilt. So much self hate. So little actual experience. But plenty, oh plenty, of higher-than-thou, know-better-than-you BS. Can it.[/quote]
