How to solve the poverty in the USA!💖

I. believe in rent control

2. I believe it to fire an employers should work with the employees to send them to rehab, counseling, training etc,not just fire employees.

3. The mentally ill need to be given a safe place to live to work on becoming stable, we have enough money without raising taxes, if politicians weren't so greedy with high salaries of $100,000 -$400,000 a year, 5 times the average salary of the population in the USA.

4. Some people lost their houses because they lost their jobs, and the banks kicked them out. It should be illegal for banks not to help families who have financial hardship, not just kick them out. So now we have millions of kids who were traumatised by seeing their parents fall apart and their pets go to shelters, and losing their friends when they have to move.

5. Some people lost their car when they lost their jobs. And if there were great mass transits they can get another job! We ned better mass transits for the young, the old, the handicapped.It would save money in the long run.

6. The car industry should not be allowed to bribe or lobby to take trains, and busses away because they want to make more money and sell more cars and politicians can be bought because they have enough money for a car so who cares about poor people without a car to get to work?

7. Some people lost their houses because they got sick and couldn't pay the deductibles of thousands of dollars. I believe in Universal healthcare so people wont lose their houses.

8. If we want an educated country like Europe, that has free colleges. we need to educate those who want to go to school Some people want to go to school but cant afford it because the loans are so expensive. I believe in free public colleges.

I love you no matter if you disagree with these ideas!💖

You are wrong but your naivety is rather cute.

@GoodoldBob I come from Scandinavia and they have solved the problems there, and are richer and happier than Americans on the average.

@Carazaa You are a kept citizen. In the U.S. we are still free people. Sad that you will never know the difference.

@GoodoldBob I have lived in Scandinavia, England, France and USA. The USA has an uneducated, and poor population compared to Scandinavia. There is a huge difference in standard of living and happiness.

@Carazaa I do not choose to be a common man,
It is my right to be uncommon … if I can,
I seek opportunity … not security.
I do not wish to be a kept citizen.
Humbled and dulled by having the
State look after me.
I want to take the calculated risk;
To dream and to build.
To fail and to succeed.
I refuse to barter incentive for a dole;
I prefer the challenges of life
To the guaranteed existence;
The thrill of fulfillment
To the stale calm of Utopia.
I will not trade freedom for beneficence
Nor my dignity for a handout
I will never cower before any master
Nor bend to any threat.
It is my heritage to stand erect.
Proud and unafraid;
To think and act for myself,
To enjoy the benefit of my creations
And to face the world boldly and say:
This, with God’s help, I have done
All this is what it means
To be an Entrepreneur.”

@GoodoldBob So you like big business to monopolies and be wealthy and take your money? It is not freedom! Private enterprise is actually huge in Scandinavia. But there isn't the corruption that you see here in the USA.
I think the gap needs be bridged. It has a gaping hole. I don’t think that means that people can’t be spectacular and stand out. @GoodoldBob

@SpoiledbratYes! I agree!🍁
@Carazaa they probably have really enlightened day programs for mentally ill people too. Here in the usa there's nothing but the threat of prison and slave labor and forced unwanted drugging.

@Stilltryinghard But that's not true there are Employment Assistance Programs at all jobs that many employers don't a take advantage of because many prefer to fire instead. There are programs we just have to be more caring. I find Americans so harsh and uncaring about others. Where does this come from? The attitude that its their own faul they have it hard? Do we want a society that is so uncaring. That is NOT what Jesus said. "Treat others the way you want to be treated."
