I'd love to see the privileged try to live in a city devoid of any service workers.
My city is kinda like that. Stores have no checkouts open, fast food is bad and takes forever, and restaurants are never as good in other towns
They cry anytime affordable housing pops up yet don't understand why no one is around to stock the grocery store
That always cracks me up about Atlas shrugged. A colony of people who think they're too good to clean toilets, gonna go far.
The right wing consistently shoots themselves in the feet and cry about how evil everyone else is for gently suggesting that maybe we at least switch to .22 rounds instead of buckshot
I love this point because they really don’t understand that if you put all the minimum wage employees 3 hours away from the city then they will need to drive 3 hours to get groceries
It's not just out of touch rich assholes who think this. I have so many friends that love to say people who work at don't deserve to live in any city and should get a real job. The most ironic part is non of them know how to cook and rely on fast food for the majority of their meals.
People making under the median household income are the ones who keep the city functioning and they deserve to live in the city more than someone making 300k a year.
Work at (insert service job) don't deserve...
Won't save my edit
who the fuck says shit like that?
No they won't. They'll just pay for delivery and carry on.
Well I certainly don’t want anyone in that city seeing my art then. My art is for the non-privileged thank you very much
