life experience
Welcome to socialism. People know that complaints = more money. It's incentivized in a socialist western system to scream your little lungs out about how terrible things are to get more funding for your own budget.
So you don't, because "life experience" in no way qualifies you to make judgments about all people like that. You just have an interest in pretending that the American system is fair to everyone.
Any negative comment about any European country is quickly silenced, because they know they either have to silence the people complaining or fix it. And they're not planning on fixing it.
Polls literally do this all the time, by using samples to get a bigger picture.
Not really. I don't care. I'm against the welfare state. I think America's welfare state sucks & should be torn down. I'd be 100% okay with "veterans" living on the streets for real if the lazy fucks won't get jobs.
But that's not the reality. the reality is that US taxpayers pay many hundreds of billions of dollars every year to make people like this not real. These are just grifters. If this guy wasn't lying, he would have endless amounts of help from US taxpayer funded socialist bullshit.
The difference is in Europe the socialists already won. In America we're still fighting over it. So this is how it works here. Also Republicans have been cucks on shit like saying no to "veterans", creating perverse incentives.
We threw insane amounts of money at veterans over "burn pits" even though it was total bullshit.
But how likely is it that however broad your personal experience is, it covers everyone who is in this sort of situation? A labor shortage does not just exist because people don't want to work, but skills demanded do not always fit skills reuqired.
But you know nearly no one else is. So you'll say that it's fair, so that they won't demand that people actually be treated fairly. The homeless issue in the US is bad enough as it is, not just for them, but also with the reign of terror they inflict on other people. I have never seen any European city with American-style homeless people being aggressive.
Like what? $300 a month in welfare checks if he has a kid? That's not even enough to cover health insurance.
You believe in Havana Syndrome but not 'burn pits'? Maybe they should spread rumors that Russia dunnit.
If I'm only right 99% of the time, that's fine with me. If I needed 100% certainty to say things, I'd never be able to say anything about anything.
Because the Euros arrest their asses. Democrats refuse to do that.
Go ahead and LARP as a "crazy homeless person" in any big Euro city & watch how fast the cops get on you. Republicans do this in the US. Democrats do not because ideologically they need to worship the homeless & use them as some kind of statement against capitalism. You only see this rampant homeless shit in the deepest blue cities.
And it has gotten MUCH worse since I was younger. You basically didn't see this at all in the 80s or 90s. Maybe a smaller amount in the 00s, then it exploded together with all the rest of the libtard insanity that hit America in the last 10-15 years.
LOL dude California pays $200/mo in food stamps alone. Medi-Cal is 100% free health care for all poors. There are tons of other government gibs. You get a lot more if you have kids, but even single men get plenty.
And if you're a veteran? Holy shit do the floodgates open. You can get disability for life even if you're not actually disabled & even if you have a job. It's a total scam.
