The general levels of education in both Canada and the USA are shocking.
Literacy is very bad, how many people, even on here, have actually read a book lately?
When was the last time you saw someone reading a book?
some of the stupidest people on the planet are well read, cause they have no real life experience, yet end up in power
edumacation doesn't just come from the library
or haven't you met a teacher or Prof lately?
Even when the homes of my parents were occupied by the Nazis and then the Communists and the world lay in ruins around them, they still celebrated Christmas and the Holidays. You would have to be pretty pathetic to suggest that it is not possible to enjoy the season simply because of the economy. Jeez......
yeah, those fuckers who keep going to the food bank, they really should quit being so pathetic
they should enjoy that can of spam at Christmas
fuck the economy!!
a great easily digestible look at myths about the economy by Robert Reich... how for the last 50 years the rich are increasingly leaving everyone behind in the US... and how, if Americans are upset with the direction of the country they should look to the rich instead of blaming the poor.
The 10 Biggest Myths About Our Economy
myths? like the rich now are worse than any other time in history?
any richer comparative to other eras?
the U.S., West had a short time after WW11, till about the 80's, where it got a bit more equitable
but the wealth disparity has always been there, the % of the middle class got larger, along with the ultra wealthy
it's not new, it's circular, just like with most of life
the good old days, yeah
the good old days are dependant on when you lived, not reality
Just like the fucking idiots in the Liberal party, just a couple of years ago, reality doesn't matter
told all their cult members
2020's was going to be the roaring 20's, like 100 yrs ago
remember those good old days when the economy didn't matter, just celebrate them!!!
you're living the good life now
