Organization Probably Doesn't Want to Improve Things

I've been very confused about how people are getting by.

If they're not in tech, and and they're not a member of the professional class (doctor, lawyer, etc), how are they doing it?

Is everyone working two jobs and doing uber on top of that, or what? How much of a bubble am I in? I'm in tech and I feel like I'm barely making it.

Middle class has been and continues to being squished and crushed, things are getting worse and worse if you haven’t noticed. And it’s not just in the US, but also other western economies such as Germany, France, UK, etc.

I wonder the same thing. I suspect that the answer is they carry a lot of debt that they never really expect to pay off.
