Sigh. Perhaps most of the workers there still have it relatively good and aren't forced to look for solutions because they're not one missed paycheck away from being homeless. So the neoliberal rhetoric still resonates. If that's true then yeah, things will have to get worse before they get better, before people rediscover what they've forgotten or have been brainwashed into dismissing.
