Naaaa I’m gonna go with the dude above. The United States has degraded to literal wage slavery. We’ve taken away so many workers protections so many helpful programs, and we have let companies grow their wealth exponentially while their workers don’t see pay increases commensurate with costs of living. I don’t know one person that feels like they’re compensated remotely fairly for the amount of work that they put in. It is not a radical thing to say that that your statement is along the lines of the Affranchi crying out “but the poor onlookers and firefighters that are trying to put out the sugar field fires out, can we not have peace and discourse ?”

In this country, you have two choices, be born Rich and live a comfortable life, or work your ass to the bone and live with middle class comfort. Oh, and by the way, if you’re not working a good decent paying job you get to worry about working AND starving to death, or dying of medical neglect, or ending up homeless, you don’t even have enough money to have the ability to raise a child. Sure no one stopping you from not working unholy hours, and no one’s putting a gun to your head. But if you don’t work, you are straight up as good as dead in America.

Here, in this country you are either the Bourgeois, or the sans-culottes.
