The most "European mind cannot comprehend this" thing around

Reply in thread

Hearing Europeans mock how much we pay for health care never gets old. I mean, the stupid high bills just don't get the point across. I would be ecstatic with a single payer system supported by taxes. A system that doesn't rely on an insurance company whose sole purpose is to deny me the coverage I am due. My favorite part is the fake astronomical prices they put on stuff just to charge insurance companies a "negotiated" price. I get that we, as a nation, truly suck. At best we are a corporatocracy. At worst, a straight oligarchy. We've got a feeble minded , racist, oompa loompa running for a second term as president. And he has a legit chance of winning! There is almost no part of our society that does not suck in some way. And the vast majority of us know it but the government is so bought and paid for that no real change is possible without bullets. But please, my European brothers and sisters, can you please stop rubbing it on our faces. I assure you we hurt enough already. (edit: a word)

The President Can Now Assassinate You, Officially

Reply in thread

Who's to say that maintaining the dignity of the office of President is not in the interest of the US? She is impugning his reputation therefore making him look weak which could embolden our enemies. She must disappear for the good of all Americans. It's not hard to justify just about anything as an official act in the interest of the US.

Tax the rich

Reply in thread

The rich own the people that decide taxes. They own the media that influences the masses. In many cases, they even own the prisons thereby giving them incentive to "encourage" lawmakers to make more stringent laws to put more citizens in prison. The rich own everything. Our entire culture is rigged to give them more money and more power. The only advantage we have is numbers. Sometimes, violence is the only choice. They certainly wouldn't hesitate to use it against you. They would just get the "authorities" to do it for them.
