    Honestly, if I was relatively wealthy, odds are that I would tuck tail and run away from the US. Unfortunately, my poverty has backed me into a corner. Flight isn't an option, only fight.

    Yerp, the wealthy are always insulated from the problems they create. And then they get upset when we try to tax them to contribute to fixing those problems.

    "It doesn't affect me, why should I pay for it?" "Motherfucker, you caused it!"

        He could get out there and energize protests. In the country he got so much out of. While its citizens rot with no healthcare he lived like a king off our labor. Fuck every one of these people.

        Exactly, he's made so much money off the American public and when stuff gets bad he leaves. Normally lemmy doesn't defend the rich but here we are.

          "Everyone is at each others throats" is some delightful both-sidesing.

          These rich "common sense" centrists really have no idea.

            This isn’t just Trump. People want to act like this is one man. The United States does not function. It will not get better after Trump leaves.

            The US was functioning fine without Trump. Trump is an agent of chaos.

              I hope that someone is AOC. It would be an extra spicy repudiation to these bastards if it was GASP, a woman, who reformed America and is a central figure in the history books.

              The last thing the Dems need is another female candidate. The voters have made it clear that it doesn't want a female president. And AOC has no international experience and is aligned with liberal agenda groups that more conservate Dems and more liberal GOPers don't want.

                Conservatives tend towards evil or apathy. They aren't fit to rule, because they don't want to make our nation a better place to live. Also, that sexism of yours? Dumb. The failure of Hillary and Kamala was because they didn't offer hope nor change. It is when a candidate promises to make things better, that people get excited. It sucks that evil has recognized this and took advantage, while the Democrats made never rocking their feed trough a priority.

                I refuse your arguments, they would just allow the nation to continue circling down the toilet bowl of history.

                  My post just faced a harsh truth that the Dems can't please everybody and needs to get back to bread-and-butter issues that get people out to vote.

                    You can pretty easily get a job for shit wages teaching English in Japan, and it's not the only country like that. You don't have to be rich, you just have to consider a different standard of living acceptable

                      Explain. I gave one way that you don't have to be rich to leave a country.

                        She took a job with the UN in their development programme. I think she took a stab at the secretary general but didn't get it.

                          You're describing a valid criticism of Capitalism, which I share 100%.
                          I just don't think that translates well to a direct guilt for Cameron.
                          He couldn't have brought his movies to the screen if he didn't work within this system.
                          Of course now that he's been successful, he could definitely donate his wealth.

                          On the other hand, I could also donate all $50k of my life savings without starving, while others are currently starving.
                          And I'm not going to do it. I carry the same type of guilt, only with lower numbers.

                          If you have 50k saved, you need that to survive within the system.

                          Nobody needs billions to survive within the system. They get that much so they can dictate the system.
