It doesn’t matter which one is elected, neither of them give a shit about the working class; the prices won’t change for the better either way. I wish President George Washington & Abraham Lincoln were reincarnated; Presidents who actually gave a shit.
To bad Biden has completely changed than how he was when he was younger… If only he was elected a lot earlier in his career. Unfortunately, that’s just not how it worked out. There used to be so much more passion behind his eyes, but now you only ever see that passion when he’s talking about icecream. 😮💨
Sounds like you need to go on a diet and get a better job.
You think I care about 34 felonies
Your opinion is invalid. Thanks for playing.
It is a bummer that you are feeling financially stressed, but the price of things won’t get better by electing a felon. His stated policies will make things worse
There’s the kicker. Cause I firmly believe that, with more education (not indoctrination) by itself, conservativism would be made up entirely of the lowest 10% of intelligence, and those in the upper 0.5% of wealth (well, those who aren’t already included from the former).
Cause no way in hell do this many regular average people care that greatly about the latest week’s GOP bullshit. Not a chance. Its fear that motivates them to seek a solution, but lack of education that makes it so effective at falling for.
We gotta live with them, so we better figure out how to teach adults who don’t have to be in school for years. Or learn how to live with needing to kill or exile them.
upper 0.5% of wealth
I don’t think nobody out of the upper 0.1% of the US would gain by their policies (and those mostly vote against them), and 90% of the people in it would probably lose too. For the 0.01%, it’s a matter of valuing short or long term gains and actual wealth as opposed to “Hah! Suffer you poor! I’m better than that!”
I won’t claim its all a grand plan or conspiracy, though I do think thats totally possible.
Its really just a time-tested quality of societial power struggles, it might very well be just a shitty coincidence.
Racism takes root out of people’s fear, and that fear is genuine, although likely obscurred.
Fear that can lead to racism can just simply be a genuine “other race will hurt me” But I’d argue thats only true for the people starting out with the lowest of the low in mental capacity.
More often though, the fear that leads to racist values and occasionally genuine fear of another race is a fear of death.
All it takes is for someone a person holds in high enough reguard convincing them that death might be coming sooner because of “the others”.
And death in the broadest sense of not just a loss of life, but also losing ones way of life. From there, you can point out whatever “others” you’d like, and the bigger the group you can simply define, the more efficient it is. And the dumber a person, the easier it happens.
I’d include bigotry, sexism, even greed boil down to that too.
“It is a bummer that you feel financially stressed, particularly these last 4 years. But things could be worse! Somehow. Vote Biden in again & you’ll see.”
To leave the US isn’t as easy in itself…to leave, and sever all financial ties, even moreso. I think you must renounce your US citizenship to stop paying income taxes. $2400 + any exit fees, for those with a little more built-up wealth.
Where to go, where to land, is another big question. Nerds with their remote working jobs can go anywhere, work from anywhere, and get their money. I am a blue collar laborer. Pros & cons to that, but it does physically limit where one can go & make a halfway successful, nice living.
I do believe the US is in decline. This could be a Rome type situation, where it is in decline for centuries. When you’re at the top, there’s a long way to fall. It might be best to position yourself accordingly, and not make any rash decisions.
I was kinda hinting at voting for someone who isn’t a senile old coot.
I haven’t looked into US politics enough to know whether the third party is any option though.
Which Trump policy’s do you expect to cause deflation significant enough to reduce your grocery bill?
Which Trump policy’s do you expect to reduce your dependcy on owning a car so that you won’t be at the mercy of oil companies, car manufacturers, and insurance companies in order to survive?
