What a world we live in where "People shouldn't die of easily treated illnesses, companies should pay workers fair wages, and people shouldn't have to go in extreme debt to get an education" is considered 'radical', but putting children in cages is considered 'normal'. That's America for you. Our whole country was founded by people who didn't want to be told what to do and valued independence over any sort of collectivism for the greater good. And we continued that mindset by spending, what, 200 years profiting off the slave labor of peoples who we continuously go out of our way to oppress, as if they should be thankful we freed them from slavery and stop whining about equality. I've had this discussion several times in the past, but America is a highly conservative country, and we will fight against positive change to our dying breath because the majority of people will receive fewer benefits from that change than any number of "others" they see around them. It really sucks. --- Touch fuzzy. Get fuzzier. Inviso ... Copied to Clipboard! |
