I work with people like this. The next sentence is always some variant of “if they don’t want to be poor they should get a better job. “
Yeah dumbass, there’s 100 million 6-figure jobs available for everyone to not be poor. And education that doesn’t put you 6 figures in debt. They should work harder than the 2 jobs they’re already working and Ubering on the side, you say? They’re already doing 4x as much as your privileged fat ass sitting behind a desk who knocks off early on a Friday.

Fuck I hate people sometimes.
You have a great point.
While “100 million” was likely made up, there are 8.3 billion people on earth. Those 100 million jobs are enough for 1/83 of the population.
