>Now if you mean for own much one is willing to sell themselves to late stage capitalism
The government is the one selling you out to late stage capitalism through rampant inflation, business and fiscal regulations and deregulation, offshoring, and various nefarious policies on housing and labor migration.
People just adapt to survive by taking the best paying jobs, since voting clearly doesn't help them.
Don't tell me you're not developing SW for the highest bidder and would take the salary of a fast food worker out of class empathy just to stick it to the evil capitalist.
That is the difference between the US mentality of the winner takes it all that has given us late stage capitalism, entshitification and Trump, and most of the world.
Quality of life and health matters more than anything else.
After a certain point, more money doesn't bring any of that, one is not taking the money into the grave, other than build a mausoleum.
You talk around the issue throwing the blame on others, but you intentionally avoided answering my question, as if you're not part of the problem, and are working for peanuts, virtue signal points and "thank-yous". Sorry but my bank and landlord doesn't accept those, only money and the government makes sure those get more and more expensive.
