    Anybody working more than 40 hours a week MORE THAN DESERVES food, shelter, healthcare, and education, among other things.

      Lets at least add entertainment to that list, we aren’t here in this world just to work and not enjoy a single day of our lives.

    Others have already said this, but everyone deserves these things, amongst others - certainly not just those who can and are are willing to work 40 hour weeks. Even the billionaires (although they don’t deserve to be billionaires)

      It’s just amazing that even with the bar so low they’ll still fight you on whether people actively doing labour deserve to afford to live or not. Like, it’s the simplest thing and even this they cannot handle.

          The ultra rich absolutely are addicted, 100% agree. The worst part for me is that it’s the workers who are fighting for the billionaires. I mean, who hears someone say that working fulltime shouldn’t mean a living wage and then goes “hell yea”?

          In the end, all their talking points circle around to worrying about billionaires living the country and taking the money with them, or outsourcing all their jobs if minimum wage goes up, or whatever else. So many of them know that the ultra rich are the enemy and they’ll even say it out loud but are so utterly spineless that they would rather beat down impoverished people, including themselves, than fight back against the people they know are killing them.

    Politicians can wear it like a cape or hug it but that flag will never represent the ideas of these corrupt politicians

    There’s some opinions that are disliked by both the left and right, and this is one of them.
