That’s unironically how they think and they can’t fathom how us poors had to grow up. I work with a privileged (I’m not even being derogatory by saying that) lady who had it all growing up and has a nepobaby job and she was gobsmacked when I told her I had to drop out of college to work more to help my younger brothers survive. Took her a second to get that not all of us have both of our parents and that our parents aren’t all rich people who could just give infinite cash.
She does straight up live in a rich bubble here in Cali.
She’s also a landlady that got gifted houses to rent by her parents so she’s part of the reason us poors have to pay so much rent.
Replying to your edit, even those people who don’t want more deserve to live a happy life with their basic needs met and the other dude just doesn’t seem to think so. Not all of us can be doctors and lawyers earning the big bucks. Some need to do the ‘lesser’ jobs that the rest of us enjoy. We need baristas, grocers, teachers assistants, daycare workers, garbage men (I know they can make decent money in some parts), fast food employees etc. We can’t leave some of those jobs to teens, and even for the ones we can our human growth won’t be enough to keep this house of cards going.
