I would have to have 7+ children to afford rent. Never mind feeding them.

Yeah, never shook using that one. But yeah, the Hatch act means nothing now, too.

My dude, the government is trying to be in charge of everything RIGHT NOW. What word we use to describe our economy isn't stopping them.

I mean, it's an economic theory, we can agree that it sucks. We can agree that it was never practiced in a way that is true to the theory, which I think is what you're saying? But as a theory, it exists.

No argument here. I have friends who aren't sure how to make ends meet. Just for a party that claims to love capitalism should really hate this.

Oh, I know white privilege exists. I just have a brother who thought he was going to waltz into an ivy league despite being from an upper lower class family in the middle of nowhere and ever since he's believed that he went to a state school because of brown people.

I get cleanliness concerns, but "working with waste water" doesn't mean "wading through waste water" .

All those people who think they might be rich one day. This should prove it. You're not supposed to be one of them. They don't want you to join the club. Even if you miraculously get that chance, they will use the laws they paid for to make sure you are excluded.
