We do a good job ignoring the economic issues of our neighbors, until it impacts our house.
Overall, people are pretty vocal about wanting a living wage, affordable healthcare, affordable education, housing, etc. yet we seem to constantly move in the opposite direction. IMO - our political machine has become too dysfunctional and no longer serves the people, or even make meaningful incremental progress. It's quite a damning time for our country and seems like some large correction would be in order at some point.
- mrguyorama 4y agoThe big problem is that one "team" utterly refuses any help that may benefit people they don't like. We have data to support that they find solutions that benefit undesirables as a bad thing, even if it will help them. So yes, they say they want a living wage, but get really really really upset if you suggest that means the guy scanning your groceries makes as much as they do.
