Most white collar workers have that. HN is packed with people who own homes, are highly employable, have excellent healthcare, and disposal income to splurge on consumerism.

The internet/social me is so hyper focused on those at the bottom that they have lost sight of what its like just a few levels up. But it's critical to understand in order to craft functional solutions.

Ok, who gives a damn about that? White collar workers are still workers who are fucked by the current globalized market. Furthermore most folks don't have cushy salaried positions and they collectively matter a lot more than the folks on this forum.

Why are you under the impression white collar workers are all workers and the only ones that matter? You also are, again, assuming your statistics imply something about their politics
