I don't really think it's fair to get mad at someone for prioritizing meeting their own needs. It is however entirely fair to be furious about societal structures that place increased financial value on industrialization and privatization over community cohesion.

Your teeth are bared in the wrong direction. We do in fact have a common enemy here.

Yeah, individuals make decisions within the structures that exist around them. Asking people to heroically sacrifice their own financial or career opportunities as opposed to changing those structures just won't succeed.
