People are working, but does that mean they can afford good housing, or college, or health care, or retirement
They can get all of that if they work hard and jump through all the right hoops. But where is the fun in that?
I agree with your sentiment that things are not great for many people, but taking from productive people and giving it to non productive people while the administration of this wealth redistribution system takes a 90% cut is not going to lead to more productive people.
Four things that would solve most of America's wealth inequity problems:
1. Bring back flophouses so guys down on their luck can stay near the urban center on a crappy old hard mattress and pay by the day/week until they've earned a stake 2. Consent or Fault Divorces Only 3. Declare Federal Emergency Development credits when Unemployment Rates are below 3% for Developers to build TRULY affordable housing either for rent or purchase. I'm talking studios, 1 beds, and a handful of two beds, very small, near Urban Centers. Trumps all local zoning on grounds of National Emergency. Developers can offset big profits on lux complexes by building and making smaller profits on more modest housing. 4. Two Strikes Child policy: After first two illegit kids on Welfare, no more benefits without getting sterilized -- applies to Men and Women.
This would also reduce a shitload of social problems.
Remember, the same liberals who claim hate to legislate morality are happy to forbid you plastic straws and demand you not misgender a tranny with the wrong pronoun.
The thing is, you must REALLY be sticking your head in the sand because here in Los Angeles we have it even better than most with literally no jobs paying minimum wage.
Then I guess they need to redo those lists that show relative cost of living relative to jobs, to get LA higher up on the list (or lower?) .
Impeachment Inquiry Canceled After 5 Episodes Due To Low Ratings
WASHINGTON, D.C.—The exciting new TV show Impeachment Inquiry was poised to take the ratings by storm, promising to eclipse all the other shows in its time slot. But the show will be canceled after one season, like a lot of bad TV shows and also Firefly.
After just five rocky episodes that failed to deliver any major plot twists, producers pulled the plug on the impeachment inquiry due to lack of viewers.
"The showrunners promised all these big bombshells, shocking twists, and startling revelations, but they weren't able to deliver," said one reviewer writing in Hollywood Reporter. "When there are so many better options out there---rewatching The Office, checking out The Good Place, staring at paint as it slowly dries---why would people tune into this tepid, uninspired mess?"
22% of Americans said they were disappointed with the show so far, while 78% said, "Impeachment hearings are going on?"

Memes. Memes. Memes. What software do you use for your memes? The word any seems to be stuck in your... well never mind...

I don't think anyone fits on a two degree spectrum. I just call them as I see them.

What are you talking about?
@WookieMan OK, BobD has consistently made personal comments and also started marking posts as nsfw when they are clearly just political.
He's the same bad user who has done this kind of stuff many times, so he's out of here.
Dang! He was about to reveal the crime that Trump committed.
