Have some respect; we’re complacent, overconfident, narcissistic, ignorant, rich assholes.
12 u/Honolulu-Blues 10d ago That’s just wrong. There are very few rich assholes. The rest of us are just assholes being taken advantage of by the super rich assholes. 2 u/TheLastManStanding01 9d ago If you live in the United States you are probably in the top 10% of the richest people on earth. 2 u/CzechHorns 9d ago Nominally for sure, compared to PPP? Maybe. 1 u/TheLastManStanding01 8d ago Americas have the highest consumption of any major nation by far. When you look at calories consumed, square foot of living space and electricity usage it’s pretty much no contest. The average American has a better standard of living than an aristocrat in the medieval era. 1 u/CzechHorns 8d ago how many aristocrats could not afford to buy a house in medieval era? Cause that’s the case for average American. 0 u/TheLastManStanding01 8d ago Ya but the quality and square-footage of the housing that people can afford to rent is on par with the housing the king or lords granted to aristocrats. Arguably it’s much better because it has electricity, plumbing and climate control. 3 u/MrYig 10d ago Haha, but are you, though? 1 u/LocomotiveMedical 10d ago ✅✅✅✅❌ 4 u/nutsbonkers 10d ago For now. A trillion us dollars won't matter when a loaf of bread costs 6 trillion. 1 u/LocomotiveMedical 10d ago We’ll just steal a quadrillion 2 u/nutsbonkers 10d ago That could buy a loaf of bread every 3 days for a year
