It really feels like the COVID bubble briefly leveled the playing field a bit, and the CEO class has been foaming at the mouth rabidly mad about it ever since. "I can't believe we hired so many of you / had to pay you more / let you WFH.. ".
At least in the US, we had some of the greatest strides in terms of increases in relative wages for the middle class as we've had in a generation. And yet all everyone wants to talk about is egg prices going up so we need to vote the bums out and take a turn towards the party of the CEO class.
Not a lot of great lessons to take from that politically or economically in terms of giving people what they ask for end being punished for it.
