Wages are so low that many cannot get past or even to break even (expenses vs income). How do people in this position continue to work? What are they sacrificing for?
None of the capitalists are going to change until their supply of human labor starts drying up. That is the one thing we collectively control. Your congress critters will never speak up on this until we make it clear they have to. Can you imagine even AOC calling for a general strike right now? I can't. But if there was popular support she and others might.
We need to decide if we are OK continuing scraping by on crumbs while we overheat our planet or if we can stand the pain of stopping all work (and income) until the megalomaniacs get a clue. US General Labor Strike Summer '22??
Or maybe this whole subreddit is just a bunch of complainers. Hmm..
