Meanwhile, the additional costs spared and their consequences for livehood:
If you’re a normal/poor person: scraping by -> can’t even live paycheck to paycheck anymore
If you’re somewhat affluent: okay -> scraping by
If you’re a billionnaire: excellent -> excellent (nothing changes)
To be part of the 1%, in the United States you’ll need about $USD 6 million. Though living off from money only (i.e. without wage labour) is already “achievable” by $2 million, you then make about $100k a year with a 5% interest if in stocks.
All ye who are not part of the 1%, are the proletariat. Ye who depend on the oligarch have nothing to lose, but a world to gain.
that’s bad, my state only follows federal minimum wage, so that’s $7.25 for everybody

You could almost say we have nothing to lose but our chains.
