This. It is an intended feature, not a bug, and it's either willfully ignorant, stunningly uninformed, or intentionally malicious to obfuscate this. To whoever reflexively downvoted the parent comment just because it tells an uncomfortable truth about America: your actions are part of the problem.
- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoI didn't downvote the comment, but this seems like an extraordinarily combative response to what you assume others are thinking about a pretty unclear issue. When you say it's an intended feature, for example, who is it specifically that intends the feature? I've never seen anyone say it's a good thing for poor people to go without electricity, but perhaps you have.
- aaomidi 6y agoGenerally anyone who believes in free-market capitalism will say this is an intended feature. Have you never heard of "actions have consequences?" You're probably not going to hear someone just outright say this is good but they will allude to it. Deep down they know it's bad, hence why most won't just come and say homelessness is a good thing.
- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoIf they don't say it's good, and they know deep down it's not good, in what sense do they support it? Again, I'd be interested to read up on it if you have examples in mind, but every "free market capitalism" person I'm familiar with agrees it'd be great if everyone had electricity and nobody was homeless.
