I grew up in a stable home with tons of opportunities, I have a a great career with a six figure income. But I’m underwater! Inflation, corporate tax avoidance, depressed wages vs commodity prices—goddamnit. I never believed in dealing drugs or stealing or cheating on my taxes, but seeing these rich assholes avoiding taxes makes me think, well why the hell not. The whole moral basis for being a criminal is eroding fast in the US.
