People also become more isolated from “others” as they age, at least those with stable jobs. They are surrounded by people of the same financial ability, and their job keeps them in an area, and their income matches to a house.
It’s not until they get laid off or they have a medical event that they start to think about it again. As long as the life compared to their peers is ok and their bellies are full, they don’t complain about trillionaires.
Problem now is that even those of us that managed the dream fucking hate them because they won’t share shit due to them being in some weird pedophilia club or something.
I assume in order to not be mad at them you need to have 10 mil invested or something.
Even past this, I think we undersell the socializing value of public schools. This is particularly true of the big state universities, where you’re going to be bumping shoulders with people from the opposite side of the state (even the other side of the country).

Absolutely this. Bigger cities can kinda-sorta avoid this. But the people you know best are going to be your coworkers and your neighbors, strictly by virtue of proximity. One of the perks of social institutions like churches and gyms is that you butt up against people who aren’t perfectly parallel with you in terms of socio-economic status.
