re: #419 Obdicut
I think the point was mainly to draw attention to the conditions and level of pay of people in those positions, rather than make really deep points about them.
I don’t suppose that an actual poor person could make those same points? It has to be a middle-class person pretending to be poor, like the white guy who dyed his skin and wrote “Black Like Me” or Gwyneth Paltrow in a fat suit for “Shallow Hal”?
