Not everything is a conspiracy
- webmaven 4y agoThat's exactly what they want you to think.
- lotsofpulp 4y agoJust a coincidence that crises affecting only groups of less connected and less rich people rarely seem to get such high priority.
- astrange 4y agoDemocratic campaign donors are not rich people, they're 40 year old middle class white women.
- ghodith 4y agoIt's no coincidence that preventing a nationwide bank run is of higher priority than other, lower priority things.
- Natsu 4y agoI thought the proper word for things like this was "privilege"?
- noelsusman 4y agoIs there an example of a similar crisis that affected less well connected people and was handled differently? This is a serious question, not an Internet dunk or whatever. I'm not very knowledgeable on these topics.
- lotsofpulp 4y agoThe bottom rungs of US society have innumerable crisis going on. Housing, healthcare, education, nutritional food, childcare, etc. The point is if things threaten the functioning of upper rungs of society, it gets worked on over the weekend by the leaders. If poor children do not have access to nutritional meals in schools, this gets knocked around for decades and decades while obesity and diabetes run rampant. A simple example is spending the money to put whole grains, vegetables, and freshly prepared non sugary foods into a child’s plate twice a day during school hours. This would only require paying a few school employees well and paying a few dollars per meal per student for ingredients, but it is not something that has happened. It is embarrassing to say the least.
