Sometimes the popular, widely held opinion is correct, sorry that bothers you so much. That's life.

"Cancer is bad."

"Billionaires shouldn't exist."

"Injecting your son's blood in order to live forever is weird."

saying rich people shouldn't exist is the most low effort tagline and it's just so toothless

completely puritanical

As stated, they are opinions not plans. As people not liking this guy or what he's doing is also an opinion. Which was the topic at hand.

I don't even know what you're arguing against at this point so I think we're done here. Just another "this is why Trump won" chud. Bye.

You should know that you do not live in the country that you learned about in school, none of us do. If you take only one thing away from this conversation it should be that. I actually hope you are capable of affecting positive change in the world and I hope you do it on a local level and I hope you are able to positively impact as many people as you would like.

Things are not the way I'd want them to be, but I do believe they are that way. I only say all this to maybe redirect your positive desire to help somewhere it can be most effective.

Sorry for being a dick, have a good one.

Ok I'm sure we're on the same side at the end of the day, I'm generally just being cynical and snarky out of frustration with the general state of things. You have a good one too.

Crack an American history book once in a while and see what you find about those efforts

In before you tell me that the top tax rate used to be 90% and that the rich were actually paying
