This is a stupid rebuttal. Society is allowed to improve the life work workers while working. Just because you want people to personally suffer doesn't make it right.

This is some old school puritan classism right here.

“ because you want people to personally suffer”

I never said I want people to suffer. I think your position is stupid because it will cause suffering through layoffs.

Very rarely has government intervention worked recently. But I guess you think these workers are stupid too and can’t take care of themselves.

Just get off their backs, I promise you they can handle without your performative outrage.

“ Society is allowed to improve the life work workers while working” This is not society doing anything. This is literally a politician that is advocating for government intervention in the economy.
