    Yes, we’re just passing a bunch of money around at the top.

    It’s why I almost never take Americans seriously when they say they ‘need’ more money. They don’t know what that word means, or what hard work really is.

      Oh really? Americans don’t ever need more money? How about these Americans? They’re doing fine on whatever they can panhandle from people leaving the Walmart parking lot and dumpster food?

      Oh… and some of those people? Full-time employed.

        Looks like they’re living in a major city.

        Supply and demand.

        They can leave and their money will go way further. The problem is, a lot of people living in major cities feel they’re entitled to do so.
