    Same. I think they want enough of us to throw the rest under the bus as a “got mine” and keep dividing and conquering. It is so exhausting having to tell the rest of my high earning peers that the enemy is NOT people just trying to survive…

      I think it has a lot to do with humans just being incapable of understanding large numbers. Like yes you’re a bigshot surgeon and you get paid mad money. You’re rich, anyone would say so right?

      But what if I told you that you have more in common with a fry cook at McDonald’s than you do a CEO?
