>>12830894European working class can go on vacation, we shouldn't expect people to have to work more and longer than a fucking medieval serf. At the same time you are right that people don't save.

At the same time however you used to get shitloads more money for shitloads easier to get jobs in past decades. Now you need a university degree for a 15 an hour job when back in boomer 80s you could get a 20 dollar job with a high school degree.
