Comment on The U.S. economy is booming. So why are tech companies laying off workers?
derf82@lemmy.world 9 months agoWell it’s a good thing no one is attempting that?
Oh, what do you call a statement like “The US economy is booming?”
You’re an outlier. Understand that you’re not the center of the universe, please.
Are you going to tell me I am the only one struggling and not seeing wage gains? Do you want to tell me my experience does not matter?

Do you just not understand the concept of other people existing?
derf82@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Yes. You apparently do not. So long as some people do good, everyone else that is struggling can fuck themselves, it seems.

So unless a policy helps literally everyone, you’re gonna say it’s not good enough?
derf82@lemmy.world 9 months ago
So as long as a policy helps some people, we don’t have to try and help more?

Now, I’ve upvoted some of your comments here but I’m gonna stop you on this one. Yeah, the economy should support literally everyone. Yeah, there should be change as long as there’s any poverty. It’s called having a floor and basic human dignity. Does every single policy have to be aimed at the worst off? No. But you came dangerously close here to saying that it doesn’t matter if only some people are suffering.
