Even with funded education, the average person has no interest in educating themselves. Most humans are just morons who are easily manipulated.

I fully expect nothing to happen as usual, we just always take the abuse in America.

Everyone wants UBI but no one explains how that shit would work. And you can bet that you would only get enough to barely subsist in such a system as you are just being paid fake money to exist. That's no world for humans to thrive in.

You give a shit about our politics

We don't think about you at all.

I'll get right on that whole convincing 100 million Americans what to do and vote in a gerrymandered and electoral college rigged system. While working ten hour days, fighting my employer for basic rights and trying to have a life outside politics. Also having zero resources compared to any corporate influence in Washington.

Sorry I don't live in some idealistic European utopia.

Tough talk for someone not living here. Everybody wanna fight fascism until it's your ass on the line. You have no idea what it's like in the US. It's not like most votes matter or there is any real organization on the left. We also have jobs, health insurance, families and other responsibilities than whatever bullshit goes on in Washington.

Honestly? Probably blame the wrong people and keep voting R.

Quaint that you think any of them need a paycheck anyway. They're well beyond ever needing any wage.
