      No, it is an America problem.

      Red plus Blue equals The Party. And our collective federal government has made this.

          Oh ya.

          I see all those constituents out there protesting for lowered taxes in the rich.

          Get your head out of your ass dude. America is an oppressed nation. Oppressed by the corrupt government. Placated by the myth that your vote means anything.

    It seems futile to try and guilt people into doing the right thing when one political party in the US is actively campaigning against helping and feeding poor children.

      “Why would we subsidize a free lunch for school kids? Their deadbeat parents should get fourth and fifth jobs!”

    We are in a rare moment in American history with no active wars, legal or otherwise.

    Any Pentagon funding is going into the scary black box terrorization of other countries that, at this point, we are only doing to spend up armament from bloated military contract deals.

    That aside, we still don’t fairly tax the rich.

    Shit…
