Hello, Americans.

Hello, i recently joined this website in hopes of finding like-minded people. America has been flawed for years, babies starve and politicians grow fat. Every penny that the poor man makes is halved and put in the rich man’s pocket. “Work harder” they all say. The more we work in this fucked up system, the more we suffer, the more the rich benefit. We have all tolerated this for too long. Do you agree?

Wealth inequality does suck, but it's mostly people from worse off places that see the country for how good it is. It beats being a slave in Libya or under the thumb of a dictatorship. Communism is authoritarian and stupid my dude, can't lead a country with resentment and weakness.

I'm for higher taxes on billionaires and such though, but we have it really good in the west compared to others.

@Ryannnnnn You'd be surprised. Just because you aren't put into the hospital every couple months like your friend doesn't mean you're not being abused, too.

@Graylight ?

@Ryannnnnn Rationalizing and normalizing bad behavior by pointing out worse behavior is dangerous. Just because some governments are in shambles should not excuse the corruption of our own.

@Graylight my friend wasn't in hospital, I think you replied to the wrong convo

@Ryannnnnn A.n.a.l.o.g.y.

@Graylight being vague and rude doesn't do you any favours. Have a good night

@Ryannnnnn Vague is in The eye of the beholder. Read the thread; no rudeness. You should be able to recognize an analogy and obtuseness is often a defense tactic. If that was not the case here, mea culpa.
