Are these folks forced into "gig" work?

It used to cost me maybe 25 cents for a cup of coffee. Now, its like $25 to get my Starbuck's double-decaffeinated half-caf with a twist delivered by Doordash.

Gotta gig, 'cause the Inflation is Real, boomer!

add, this is typical whether your a single employee contractor or a multiple employee contractor with the least leverage in the deal. Its a fact of real life, not a ploy against the self-employeed

"As long as prices are kept in check" Hello?

MMT'ers act like they've discovered some new concept. MMT is not economics; its political spin, propaganda, down playing the harsh realities of economics (not just "late stage capitalism" or whatever the kids call resource constraints nowadays.)

Does your car not have HomeLink? Homelink works fine with MyQ, no subscription required.

Generally, tax planning & preparation is going to be far more complicated for wealthy individuals, especially business owners with diverse investments.

What you see as "minimizing taxes" could be a necessary responsibility. If you're on the outside looking in, you may be uninformed about their circumstances and responsibilities. Its definitely a 1% of the 1st world problem, but its still a responsibility that has to be managed; Unless you're familiar their THEIR circumstances, its easy to incorrectly assume motivations.

I have the solution - someone else should pay!

When you say "the rich" don't pay enough, you're essentially saying "don't tax me" then launch into a selfish, ad hominem tirade about how greedy "those" other people are

So you perfer your phone to track you rather than your car

From what I'm told, privilege is only a white male issue. Maybe some males feel like they are being made a convenient target by the sh!t stirrers

Also, what is lonely? Is that a bad thing? Personally, I like it when people leave me alone (especially the shadow banning mods)

Also try putting your phone down. Be present in the moment. Stop streaming your life into a blackhole

I think it was the great philosopher, Huey Lewis, who once said "I wanna a new [technology | Drug]!"
