It’s wild how conservatives have been led to believe that people shouldn’t make a livable wage doing whatever job needs to be done.
Not just conservatives. My stepdad is far from being one, but he lives in a fantasy reality where “no one in the 80s made a living or supported a family working fast food or running a register.” (I paraphrased a tiny bit, but this is a near-direct quote from him.)
In the 80s we were already on this path to severe underpayment. He was being fucked by the system already, it just wasn’t as obviously destructive so he took it with the lube they provided and said thank you. Now they can’t admit that’s what happened because they would have to admit were/are idiots getting willingly fucked by the business.
@Soup 🤔 is it obvious? seems obvious they’re funding both sides to me, but apparently not to you? Are you sure you’re looking in all directions or just where you’ve been told to look?
The problem is that those Reaganomics affect younger much worse than older. He probably still did fine and that’s why he didn’t understand what others are complaining.

Baby Boomers really struggle to accept their enormous share of how we got to this place.
Invariably it’s some Millennial’s fault. And by Millennial, I mean anyone who looks under 40.
bankers don’t give a shit about red team or blue team, they’ve just been stealing from everyone. Good luck!
I mean they really, very obviously, do go in for conservatives. It’s their whole fucking thing.

“makinh a living” and “surviving” are two different things
Ask him how those Reaganomics are working for him.
