JJ: The rest is good, though. I grew up in a lower-third income family myself and feel much of what you have voiced. Qx: What the hell is that? Are you of working class origins or not?
JJ: Problem is, our values and culture are screwed up and no economic system is going to change taht.
Qx: So you advocate giving up and then ingratiating yourself with Public Choice Theory. Just great.
JJ: Only by living our lives in accord with sound moral judgement as individuals responsible to ourselves, others, and society in general will things turn out allright.
Qx: Sounds like a bit of collectivist ethos mixed in with a dash of millenial anxiety. Existentialists would refer to this as "living in bad faith". Best of luck in your next re-incarnation.
