You might enjoy Somalia.
- justinzollars 4y agoI live in very high tax San Francisco, which is similar to Somalia in many ways. Our politicians are corrupt (Nancy Pelosi is a world class Options trader), we have a meteoric increase in crime, and we let people die on the streets - 1,300 over the last 2 years [1]. 1. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/San-Francisco-drug-overdose-17067557.php https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/San-Francisco-drug-ov...
- honkycat 4y agoPeople on the left are viscous critics of the democratic machine politicians. Pointing to them isn't an effective critique because: yes I agree. Liars and crooks all of them. Running to the right and embracing authoritarianism is much preferable to the politicians than, say, a general strike and a unionization movement. Which would actually harm the people in power instead of squishing those at the bottom.
