We can agree to disagree. But I'm glad you have enough confidence and faith that the US government can get anything worthwhile accomplished. I remember when I had those illusions as well when I was younger. Get another decade or so experience under your belt and let's see how that works out for ya.

Then you have learned nothing then. I don't see why you'd expect private enterprises to magically take care of people. What reason do they have to? It cuts into their profits? Another decade of experience would result in ... Me having less money comparatively if I remain at the same job consistently because of the jacked up prices that are completely and utterly unregulated. You should try visiting other countries and seeing how much better off you are there. The US' main thing going for the average person is that you can potentially make more money. But the reality is that you WANT to work remotely for the US but live somewhere else. Doesn't do much good to make more money when everything has 400-500% price mark-ups.

Yea... you keep buying into it. You're making a difference in this world.

As opposed to voting for "let's just make corporations richer, it'll totally trickle down?" There is no data that lines up with what you're saying.
