Yet people from all over the world flock to your country, fleeing from totalitarian and leftist governments. They want what you have. You want what they have. Why don't you move? They are willing. China has a big gap in the wealthy and poor too, yet the poor have no freedom of expression, cannot speak out against their government. Millions are persecuted and suppressed.
so your argument is that there are worse places in the world, so we should do absolutely nothing about the problems in our economy?
Not at all. I think your country was doing remarkably well under Trump until Covid-19.
Your argument seems to be that it is no better than third world countries. I know a little about such countries. I've lived and worked in one and was born in another. Why do you think there are so many people fleeing other parts of the world to come to America? Your problem, IMO, is that you do not appreciate what you have. Many problems in much of your economy have been created and perpetuated by the Democrat Party. I already mentioned some major city's where this becomes evident because they have been in the hands of Democrats for decades in some cases. Take a look at Baltimore, NY, Chicago, Atlanta, Seatle, Portland, St. Louis, LA, San Fransico, as a few and tell me what they have in common. Many are also sanctuary cities. When are these people going to learn that Democrats can't solve their city's problems?
Although you are not as well-off as the billionaires, their companies give you jobs and raise your living standards far above these totalitarian regimes that oppress their citizens in every way while the rich feed off the backs of the poor in their exploitation. There is no synergism their.
ok, so the people siphoning off the vast majority of the wealth let people have enough to stay alive (although in many cases they don't even do that), so we should just be super happy about that and continue to obey and serve them? That is a really shitty outlook on the world.
It takes money to create opportunities. You dry up that money and you will be another Venezuela where only the ruling class lives in luxury. Relatively speaking, your country is well off in comparison to most of the third world nations. It has a priceless commodity they the people of those countries seek - freedom!
Under the Democrat Party, they have given away your wealth, siphoning off and shutting down your factories and raped your economy with their massive senseless regulations. They have raised your taxes and want to do so in extraordinary ways in the future so that what you have now will quickly disappear. They want to open the floodgates to immigrants and give them health insurance, education, and other freebies at the taxpayer's expense. They want everyone to be equal (except themselves) and give you everything which will destroy creativity and reduce the incentive to work. Yet these crazies keep supporting their policies by re-electing them. States like NY and California are not good places to live anymore. San Fransico has a homeless problem. Open borders bring in drugs, sex trafficking, gangs, and those fleeing their own countries, some of which are the criminal element. You pay for that in many ways, including less secure cities. The Democrats do not work with the elected government for the betterment of your country. In everything they do, they oppose it and undermine it because they are so hungry for power that the people are forgotten about. They spin and lie and fabricate. They continually create social programs that fail. The crime rates in liberal, democrat-run cities spike. The poverty levels are bad. They promise everything and deliver no hope. They hate Trump because he has exposed their dirty dealings like no other. The Swamp has pulled out every measure to resist and subvert his agenda. He has done more than any president I'm aware of with 100 times the obstacles of any other president. That is the kind of person I would want as my leader. They call him racist, xenophobic, misogynistic, bigoted, hypocritically since they meet the bill twofold. I hope the American public is aware of the double standard and votes overwhelmingly to oust these Democrats from office. What have they done in the past four years that have been beneficial to your country? NOTHING. Are you going to reward them again?
