Sheer cussed negativity + thinking that if we make a commitment to economic and social justice, "The poor will get my job and I'll be out on the street" . . . which doesn't account for the fact that what we have going on here is: you'll keep your job, maybe, butyou will NEVER see your wages/salary go up and you will forever see groceries and medical costs go up.
