We are talking about people with internet access, not some rural farmers in the third world.
Nobody says those rural farmers should embark on an emoji project.

I didn't see anything about how much they would have to work, just what percentage would have trouble coming up with the money on short notice. It doesn't even imply they are poor, they could simply put all their money into their mortgage every month.

$1000 a month is a good developer salary in lots of third-world countries, and that's not even entry level jobs. Hardly a bunch of rural farmers.

Gee, someone being able to afford something really crawls under your skin.
For a lot of people in the world, it's a tremendous amount of money. Congrats on being someone without that concern.
