Why is it that the people who like to claim that money isn't everything, are so obsessed with getting equal pay?

Why is it that many on the left, who say they stand for equality, only care about one element of equality - monetary. Why, to them, is everything about money?

Because everything is too expensive.  You shouldn't have to slave yourself and whore yourself to corporate America just to have a roof over you head or gas in you tank.

 

I can understand that some people have unrealistic expectations, but people with reasonable expectations are still getting screwed.

Now... if I'm reading this correctly you are saying

"People shouldn't have to get a job just to own a house and have gas in their car.""

How isn't that an unrealistic demand?  Heck, it's even taking a car as a general right because it's gas in your tank, let alone a car.

If you mean a job in wallstreet... well you don't need a job in wallstreet to get those things.

 

Furthermore, trying to spread out home ownership to everyone is what LED to the economic crash and a lot of the things wallstreet did.  They needed to fill quota's for home ownership by the government, and needed to find a way to do it while making a profit large enough to justify them staying in buisness.
