    I’m not sure I care for you lumping all of us in the same boat. I am not my government and I’ve done my best to prevent this. In the end many of us are just cogs with little power. And some of us are indeed suffering.

      And yet the french will riot in the streets when they try to raise the retirement age and we just bitch on the internet when trump kills people by the thousands on a whim. We have exactly the government we deserve.

      i respect their opinion cause as a whole americans also need to account for their neighbors. At the same time it’s near impossible cause America is huge and not everyone travels. It took bernie’s fighting oligarchy tour an entire year to pass a foreign concept of democracy to some areas.
