I’ve seen a couple advertising roofing, one advertising a dentistry, one advertising solar panels. Employees probably haven’r gotten a raise in years. Really genius brains in charge of society.

100%, i think people just blindly accept this arrangement for a few reasons
they're born into it and when you're born into something you don't question it as readily "because that's how things are", something can become as much of a fact of reality as oxygen or gravity.
we're all basically told you're a stupid piece of shit for wasting money on college (after a life of being told you better go or else you'll be poor all your life) while simultaneously being told that "small business is the backbone of our economy" so it plants this idea in people's heads that they don't deserve help, that this struggle is somehow going to be rewarded with a big pay off and that the unnecessary struggle is a necessary part of 'climbing the ladder'
all of this 'personal responsibility' gospel has NEVER applied to businesses. in capitalist society criticizing business is basically like going to church and criticizing god
all of this culminates in what i believe is mass psychological damage, and a complete detachment from material reality for many people.
That’s going to be the new thing.
“Just go to college bro…lol just kidding we got you good! Enjoy your debt!”
“Just learn a trade, bro….lol enjoy your dangerous job and back pain!”
“Just network bro. What’s that? You were born in the middle of nowhere and have zero rich friends that will hire you as a favor? Awww….too bad! Enjoy your unemployment!”
“Just start your own business, bro. I promise bro, I’m not fucking with you this time bro.”
I’m sure there’s going to be a mass propaganda about joining the military to target Gen alpha much akin to all the “learn to code/learn a trade” propaganda Gen Z got.
