Basically the only the middle class has going for it is a false sense of pride, and the satisfactory illusion of supporting oneself

Prove me wrong

>why have money and nice things if you aren't super rich

Without a sufficient number of middle class society WILL go down the tubes.

Prove me wrong.

>>8592604
Most people don't really want the useless things they buy. And poor people are more likely to have more kids and eat more meat, in America at least. And my point was, they get help from the government

Unironically would rather be a NEET than middle class. Im in that crypto gray area of being rich or being a NEET. Fuck the white picket fence house

>>8592448
Yeah no. People who are poor RARELY take risks. People who succeed, do.

Stop being a low energy NEET faggot and get a fucking job. Who knows, if you remove the pole you have jammed up your ass, you might actually enjoy it.

Only a lazy NEET piece of shit would romanticize and cheerlead being poor. Just fucking stop that retarded shit. Get off your ass and go get a fucking job, and stop wasting everyone's time with your crybaby bullshit.

Most of you are young fags with no sense of pride. Hopefully you will get a clue some day.

>Get sympathy from the faggots and liberals
Oh wow, being poor sounds awesome. I would totally give up a perfectly normal life for that.

Jamal and his cell mates from state prison would like to disagree.

Found the boomer lol I sure am missing out on that 60 hour work week and 29% taxes for niggers and spics

>>8592666
Lmao no one is on your side, nice trips tho

>>8593015
"Boomer"? That's all you got, faggot? You're the fucking boomer, playing the fucking retarded generational warfare card, so you're either an old fuck, or a woman.

But, we expect that kind of faggotry from you low energy loser NEETs, too.

>>8593107

>Is there any point to being middle class?

What are the alternatives? Being poor? or rich? I mean being rich is nice but requires a lot of work and/or some very good luck.

That's a multi million dollar real mansion pajeet learn the difference

>>8594119
No it's not. It's on a street with 50 other cookie cutter houses built in the same decade.

This is how I see it. I think many people are homeless by choice because they would rather that than wagecuck themselves into debt. I am currently a wagecuck, but my intention is to get rent free by 2028. I will do this by living as cheap as possible, and spending very little. I'm an IT contractor so this is very doable if I aim for properties under 70k.

I work with lots of "middle class" people. Though really, where I am there is no middle class. Just people whose parents managed to buy a house in favorable conditions. The real rich people, those who are independantly wealthy I would class as upper-class or upper middle class? Those guys dont really have to worry about money too much.

The people I work with are those who are trying to become middle class. These wannabes do shit like visit hipster theatre productions, go on expensive skiing trips and wear brown brogues just to appear middle class/upper-middle class. They do very little for enjoyment and its all about increasing their status over their peers. As such, most of their lives is spent making snide remarks about how X person bought a house in the wrong area or bought the wrong car because the leather seats weren't responsibly farmed.

Why not just get a mortgage and buy a house today?

>>8594196
Howd you find it

>>8592666

Getting a normie job isn't taking a risk you stupid shit. Creating a business, trading crypto, or doing something unconventional for money (like drawing furry porn) are risks.

>>8594196
It's still $4.2M, 22,000 sqft, 6 bed/14ba, and has 5 floors. I'd consider that a mansion.

Mediocrity is pretty hard to achieve desu mostly because the Western middle class is perceived mediocrity, in reality it's a global top 15% of wealth distribution. The majority of American millennials will fall below, no office job, no house.

What is up with capitalist elites not wanting free health care paid by the people for the people? Yet hypocritically capitalist want free shit all the time.

I'm a phone poster it all seems so tiring

>collect welfare, ebt
That's lower class dumbass. The middle class pays for the lower class's welfare

>>8594881
free health care isn't free.
and it's terrible, USA only country without it, and 99% of innovative papers come from the US.
Coincidence? nope. we invest in the new drugs, surgery, treatments that the rest of the world steals for free.

If we switch to communized health care, the entire world will see a dark age in the medical sector

brainlet

most cutting edge shit is developed out of the USA away from the FDA.

USA pharma is about nothing but pure profit. They stagnate true advances in medicine to keep people on long term regimens.

big time dope dealing really; we flooded with opiods and benzos

>free health care isn't free.

If majority of my tax dollars goes towards war, why not have the billions upon billions of dollars go towards health care for free? Once again paid for by the people's tax dollars for the people

>If we switch to communized health care, the entire world will see a dark age in the medical sector

that some propagandic boogyman bullshit you got there, buddy. Everyone around the world has free health care and they are doing just fine. Once again it's hypocritical of the top 1% to demand free shit yet they spew out bullshit to the people to keep middle class and poor class down.
