Not to put too fine a point on it, but the United States would likely do better and be more productive with one of me than several of you.

The problem isn't where A-Theist ended up, the problem is his bullshit judgmental attitude that if you don't work 80hrs a week and run your body into the ground killing yourself to make a billionaire rich then you are a loser. My X wife has both a masters and PHD in microbiology. I am not going to say her work was easy, no work  is easy, but she also wasn't in a mud pit digging ditches in 90degree heat 6 days a week either. 

Office jobs are not easy, nobody should claim they are, but all I am saying to A-Thiest is don't shit on those who have to worry about not only paying their bills, but not making ends meet because pay isn't keeping up with the cost of living, on top of it being physically demanding.

It is far easier to spend long hours psychologically when you like what you do on top of having the support not to have to worry about struggling financially. I've done both 12 hour shifts sitting at a desk at a radio station, and 12 hour shifts sweating my ass off in a hot kitchen with no air conditioning. 

I wish I had your degree, I wish I had my X Wife's degree. I like office jobs over sweating. But my brain doesn't process information the same way as those who figure those things out. I am an artist, a poet at heart, and unfortunately that is no the type of thing you can walk into a business and get a job with.

Point is, all jobs, from the top to the bottom are needed, air conditioned or outdoors, rich or poor and middle class. But far too many on the right chase bullshit utopias and think of the bullshit cliche "starter job". Problem is if these judgmental assholes would go into those places they call "starter jobs" during the class time of public schools and colleges, who the fuck is working there when the kids are in school?

There is room for everyone, rich, middle class and poor. Some will move up, some wont. But the worse the pay gap gets the worse it gets for even the rich, because the less pay workers make, the less they buy

Bolding, mine. First off, where did I say that I looked down on anyone who has a low paying job? That's right. I didn't. I only referenced the lazy ass kids who'd rather spend their time behind a computer screen or play video games rather than having actual jobs. Hey, if a low wage job is all you can find, at least you're working and earning honest money. Isn't that what you said? I agree with you on that point.
