Writing for the outlet, Andrew Lisa explained that Americans hold a combined $160.35 trillion in wealth. To the average person, that sounds like quite the payday, but someone in the top 1% probably wouldn’t see it that way. According to Lisa, “The bottom 50% of the country shares less than 3% of that enormous pie, while the most fortunate 10% gorge on nearly all of it.”
There are approximately 340.11 million people in the U.S. If they all shared that $160.35 trillion, each person would come away with $471,465. Not only is that more than the average person could even imagine, but it only compounds when you consider how it would add up for families. For example, a couple would hold a combined $942,930, and a family of four would have $1.89 million. Because, of course, in an ideal world, wealth would be distributed evenly regardless of age.
Ok, I disagree.

When not necessarily being forced to do a thing, people may actually choose to do a thing, because it’s no longer survival/crises dependent. And McDonald’s is garbage fill-up with no nutritional value being kcal anyway.

Because I never did any, let alone all those jobs, amirite*?
Newsflash, when these jobs aren’t necessary to survival, especially at 40/week, people will do them to keep busy, interact with diverse people, etc. MAYBE even McDonald’s will have a more nutritionally sound diet.

He screams from his sheltered, privileged bubble. The people you claim wouldn’t do it are the ones who will, because we’re not afraid of getting our delicate little hands dirty, and our fragile little feelings hurt.

Guess different people are cut from different cloth, then, like some can see past their own preferences and some can’t, then.
Ok, whatever you say. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We don’t. I still disagree with you. I’m not interested in arguing with someone so fragile that they resort to personal attacks when someone tells them they disagree. Have a good day!

Ok.
