Maybe instead of blaming the people who are paid fairly in retirement, the people who earn $50k or $60k should start blaming their employers for hoarding profits and underpaying them?
Why do we always want to drag those who get to retire comfortably down? Why aren’t we trying to fight for better retirements for those getting screwed?
Misery loves company I guess.
