  2. It’s not that we can’t find a job, it’s we can’t find a job that pays enough money to live. So why get a job at all?

  3. Here in Miami, there is literally a 50% chance your Uber driver doesn't speak English.

  4. The guy robbed and shot an innocent retreating unarmed woman. How is he not being charged?!

  5.  @alinatsui209  You can’t just “pivot to a higher paying job”. That’s like telling a homeless person to just buy a house.
    90
  6. Good rule of thumb: If it's set up because something is impoverished or underfunded, it won't be temporary.
    78
  7.  @alinatsui209  Yeah, my last job I was working 50-60 hours a week and still homeless. But let me just stop that and “upskill” while starving even more.
    58
  8.  @handleyobusiness  People HAVE risen their skills. We have more people with college degrees than ever, and they’re still underpaid. While the rich get richer.
    57
  9. This is actually quite good and hope it takes off. It's better than prostitution, both legal and underground. Overall it can help a lot of lonely people out there that have mental issues and whatnot.
    49
  10. Mississippi, New Mexico, and West Virginia. They're on every "worst state" list, usually in the top five.
    37
  11. So basically, it's a pain to move into Canada. Like any other country. But once and settled in it's pretty nice.
    36
  12.  @peterrickard3304  Agreed. Education tends to wane religious ideals. Makes me concerned to move South now though.
    35
  13. If you bought a home in a place that needs gentrification in the first place you already screwed up. That's on you. Also if your home's neighborhood gets gentrified you can sell the house for far higher a price and use the extra capital to move. It's a win-win.
    33
  14.  @hunteralh  I was at the DMV yesterday. One of the office workers came outside to give us instructions, saying it all in Spanish. When I asked what she was saying, because I didn't speak Spanish half the crowd looled at me like I'm the crazy one. Like, I'm glad workers speak Spanish as most people there were Cuban and whatnot. But if you're going to relay instructions at least have an English speaker there too. It's a dang American DMV!
    32
  15. As someone who has lived in the "hood" a lot of their life, I gladly welcome gentrification. I mean, what's the alternative? Keep it gang ridden and terrible looking all for the sake of of "preserving culture". Let's be real with ourselves.
    32
  16. Please do visit, and remember to treat the ladies with respect. They're very friendly.
    28
  17. I'm from New York and so is my dad. My Dad moved to Georgia and I moved to Old Dominion Virginia. Edit: I now live in Miami
    27
  18. Wait, there's a such thing as a drive through liquor store? Seems kind of...contradicting.
    24
  19. Good advice, no wonder these lands are so cheap. They're not worth the hassle, jeez!
    21
  20. Also often the most violent. I live near Martin Luthor King blvd and Malcom X Ave. MY friend was shot in a drive-by there, she was in middle school.
    20
  21. This actually happens WAY more than people think. I have like 30 cousins living living in NYC alone, and that’s just the ones I know. It’s highly likely at least one of their children would hook up. Now imagine this in a smaller town or city.
    17
  22. Agreed. Very misleading thumbnail. Did I just get clickbaited?
    16
  23. I wonder what terms was Google basing this off?
    15
  24. As a woman I say this: don’t get married. You don’t need a government contract to prove you love someone.
    15
  25. I lived in the projects before joining the military. Never looked back. Worst time of my life.

  26.  frank brown  My wife and I are going semi-rural next year after I graduate. Won't be a place with free land but still more than enough to ensure I can keep the rest of the world off it.

  27. The list: 10. North Carolina 9. Oklahoma 8. Georgia 7. West Virginia 6. South Carolina 5. Arkansas 4. Louisiana 3. Tennessee 2. Mississippi 1. Alabama Your Welcome. Also special thanks to my friend Briggs.
    11
  28.  frank brown  They usually require you to build the house yourself, which is much more expensive.

  29.  @maureenjossick429  Thanks, fixed it.
    10
  30.  @alrakism  I strongly agree. A degree isn’t a skill. It’s just a paper showing you have knowledge about a skill. To actually execute it in applicable effect for use (a job) is skill; something college doesn’t teach you.
    10
  31. It's Pandemic Paranoia in California. I'm glad I'm moving to Florida. No mask, no restriction, all paradise.

  32. The government killed it in 2020. You can’t forcefully shut down a bunch of jobs and toss millions into extreme poverty, and expect that to not tidal wave back.
    9
  33.  @iThiink  But that should be their choice regardless. Also you’re assuming the extremes. A person can have a sex toy and still have friends.

  34. Best thing this these extra fingers are fully formed and functional, so it's a complete +1. In other words, it's a dominant gene. Basically this means eventually everyone's grandchildren in the next few hundred years will have six fingers, an those that do not will be considered inferior.

  35. You summed it up nicely, it's a horrible place to raise a family.

  36.  @TrailTrackers  Lol. Thanks, I fixed it.

  37. They key isn’t number of misquotes, but predators. I lived in Okinawa, Japan, Summer year round. I lived there for two years, and I was only but once. They took care of the lizards, giant spiders, and bats that inhabit the island.
    7
  38. In the beginning, yes. But now Florida is the best state to have little pandemic restrictions. It's the most "back to normal" place to be.
    7
  39. "A black-swan event that nobody could predict that could crash housing values". You mean like a global pandemic or something? Imagine that...
    7
  40. After I graduate I'm looking into moving back to Japan. People complain about the U.S. but choose to stay here, or rather yet they can't leave. I feel bad for them.
    7
  41. That must be one powerful laser, I’m very impressed.
    7
  42. I don't understand why bad parents don't just give their children to an orphanage or something. Instead they raise them in a broken home. Then they grow to become broken adults. Thus repeating the cycle.
    6
  43.  @che238  You actually make a great point. At my college apartment both my neighbors were black guys, and one of them dated a white girl. I also know a black girl in my old chemistry class who dates a half white half Spanish guy. Lastly, I'm glad you learned this at such a young age. This is why I love college. It educates you in many things, and really helps filter off the ignorance and racism of others. It really goes to show how the lack of education leads to ignorance. And as I said ignorance is racism in it's purest form. Keep going strong there in college. It'll keep you educated and help shape you for your future with a great husband, and you'll bring the best out of each other.
    6
  44. A good rule of thumb: If a lot of the rich and famous leave and area, over time that area tends to go bad very quickly. All that tax money pays for good schools, police, and clean towns. When that money leaves the state...well, see Detroit, and East Michigan in general.
    6
  45.  @crusaderkiller5816  Long story, my mom stole my college money and forced me to drop out. Then she took 75% of my work money for "bills", though I barely could hold a job because we moved literally every year. Ended up in a section 8 building with her, now stuck in the projects. No job, no education, you know the stereotype; and worst is, it wasn't my fault. My mom was even doing everything in her power to discourage me from joining the military. She was trying to keep me stuck like her. In the end I finally escaped her and joined the Marine Corp. I made enough money to repay my college debts and graduate college. I also since cut my mom completely from my life. Sorry if it's a bit off topic. Reason why the projects in particular was so bad because it felt like my mom was trying to stear my life into being like...hers. Living in bad neighborhoods and such, stuck in poverty, etc. And I done everything in my power to avoid it. Seeing my inevitable fate to be stuck in poverty staring me down everyday was a nightmare. Bloods on the stoop outside the entrace, the building full of addicts, it was too much. I didn't want THIS to be my future. Honestly, if the military thing didn't work out I planned to kill myself.

  46.  @melaniefuselier8258  The City. They usually have a number on a website.

  47. They do actually. Prostitutes are often actually genuinely very nice people.

  48. Well to be fair "White" generally means someone with a lighter skin. Heck, I knew a "white" girl who actually was albino black. Most "white" people are mixed to be honest. I once dated a white girl who was %25 black, and rest was a mix of italian and white. Heck I remember not too long ago people considered Italian and white people different in the US. I also remember even further back when red headed Irish gingers were very discriminated, and not just a ginger joke played for mild laughs. Basically, what I'm trying to say is "white" is becoming more and more subjective. Heck, every race is in the US is subjective. I don't think a single person born in the United States is 100% anything. Really odd we still even have race here, especially very blurred ones like Asian, Black, or White; which devalues the actual race. What I'm saying is we should eliminate race altogether or define it far more concretely. Because right now we're in the middle using vague phrases with no meaning to define a skin color that inaccurately describes a person. And personally, I would like the former, as I feel race just further enforces discrimination by categorizing someone for little reason.

  49. It raises the value of living there for people who can afford it. It's a good thing, just not for everyone.

  54. I'm genuinely surprised Mississippi made this list. Like, what top 10 worst list are they not part of?
    5
  55. Exactly! That’s the point entirely of transitioning. All we want is to live life and be happy.

  56. United States: Lets bail out big business. China: We don't do that here.

  57. I live here in Hampton Roads. It's very nice to he honest.
    5
  58.  @tj7179  As I said, you're selling a home. Meaning you already own it. So you'll likely have the capital to move and/or a lot for a down payment.

  59. This is why I'll never be a teacher. It either makes you insane or you get seduced by a student.

  60.  @yuch1102  I never said that. You misunderstood what I said, by a lot. Heck, I own a sex doll myself.

  61. Why do black women have to marry black men. I know it wasn't explicitly said but I just want to address the elephant in the room. Let's hit the issue at the core.

  62. Still not moving to NYC. Nope, not worth it. I'll keep my nice acre of land and backyard.

  63. Agreed

  64.  @clemfandango5886  If you're going to move to a different country, you should expect to need to learn their language. How can you expect to move to an English speaking country without learning English?

  65.  @puesbien  I'm genuinely thankful for the reply, but can you run it through Google translate?

  66. Most people who transition don’t just magically decide to end their life. In fact, those who do tend to do so because of bigotry.

  67. Escape while you can man. California is showing the same signs Detroit did in 1960.

  68. "Wow, thanks dad". Nick has been navigating hard on Mrs. Mappy behind Mappy's back.

  69. It's because of connections. A poor person has to go into a more guaranteed high paying degree, because they can't afford to be poor and in student debt. They likely have no connections, paying a higher interest rate on the loans to begin. Worst of all if they fail, they end up right back in the cycle of poverty, the very thing they went to college to escape. Where as a rich person can afford to get a liberal arts degree and work in a place that actually pays at least decently. Worst case scenario, they likely have their student debt paid off by their parents. Either case much less risky.

  76.  @jassimal-khashti5555  Agreed. 90% sounds more accurate.
    3
  77.  @Jtfreeze17  Yeah, it irritates me. I love the women and food though, so it balances out. It's mostly the older people who it's a problem with. Most Millennials and Gen-Z speak English. The very few young ones who don't are new to the US but eager to learn or at least very patient to try and communicate as best they can which I appreciate. Like earlier I just had a 30 minute conversation with a young adult with a mix of sign language and Google translate. It was honestly quite wholesome.

  78.  @abcxyz2927  Hey, sorry, i don’t feel like arguing. I been down this road before. It’s entertainment for you to hate people like us. Until that changes, I know I won’t change your mind. Just know you don’t have to be one of those angry bigot people. I’m just choosing happiness, and I want the same for you too.

  80. I've seen people deliberately limit their employment so they don't lose their stuff like section 8 and government aid. Such an easy system to abuse, and nobody is willing to admit it.
    3
  81. I'm just glad to see a polygamy family in the media that isn't the FLDS. The FLDS really give polygamist a bad wrap. Most polygamist don't do any of that weird cult stuff. In fact, ask any polygamist and they'd tell you they dislike the FLDS. Being polygamist is actually a lot like living with your roommate or your aunts an older cousins. You don't don't interact too often and you raise your family just like any other. Being polygamist isn't going to give us some kind of genetic disease or radiation poisoning lol. Just let polygamist live how they wish.

  82. Yeah that almost happened to me when I was a teen, and I was in a tube; a guy taller and with that moment easily could go over

  84. Overworked and underpaid

  85. You're right it is a good starting point. But like the video says you also need to evaluate which majors will likely guranteee a solid job, access the risk vs. reward, and choose accordingly. And like the video says, if you can afford those risk depending on the wealth class you come from. Not much risk if your parents pay your student loans. But if you're the average guy you are literally making an investment, you screw this up and it's game over.

  86. I’m a Trans women. I left Florida. The discrimination and bigotry is insane and only getting worst.

  89. I just moved to Miami. It's only insane if you live in the city. It's easy to not live in the city here though, as most jobs are actually outside the city. At least the average ones. Explains why it was #10.

  91. California is a sinking ship. It's only a matter of how fast at this point. Kicking out Uber/ Lyft, threatning their citizens with "state flee" taxes, not to mention all the other problems they have like crime and homeless. I honestly, can't imagine what worst they could do to themselves, it's like they're trying to ruin the state even further. This is how Detroit happened. The big businesses left and slowly it trickled down to more and more leaving. Texas and Nevada is right next door with cheaper land and offering incentives. While California responds with tax threats and a declining economy. They'll be hitting Detroit status soon and in record time.
    2
  92.  @UmAdxXbRo  That's the point. Without any middle class there's no barrier in the consumer market. You then either have the poor and homeless not being to keep up or the rich and upper class leaving to get to a place with less poor and homeless. It eventually all folds in on itself.

  93. I’m surprised Miami didn’t make the list. I moved here 2 years ago and love it.

  106.  @Vic2point0  A disagreement of one person isn’t bad, but a collective is a powder keg. It shouldn’t be like that but it is. Simply put, it only takes one bad person to easily corrupt the bunch. Some don’t even do it with ill intentions. Most if the time they do it to fit in, and not stand out. “No LGBT people around the world, what is one little joke gonna hurt”, kind of mentality. This behavior very often grows. Again, not saying you’re like that; but people around their friends act way different than they do solo. Just a word of mindful wisdom. After all we are all human. Those laws are very transphobic. They’ve been created very clearly to target the transgender community. By your logic segregation was okay because “separate but equal”; yeah, see how bad that went. And honestly, controlling whether someone can wear slacks or a skirt is a very dumb law that serves no purpose. America is the land of free. These laws and bills are just separating people, when we should be working together to unite each other. If you were treated as less than American because of your gender you’d feel discriminated too, because that’s exactly what it is. That’s exactly the point. As I stated, you disagreeing alone is not a problem. When you get a collective of people who disagree about transgender people that’s when it becomes an issue, as those people spiral faster and deeper towards bigotry. It’s like levels. Take race for example, someone can be a 1 and be mildly uncomfortable around black people, a very mild racist; but you put a bunch of 1’s in a room and they quickly can become the KKK over time. That’s essentially where people like you are at. You’re a 1 (presumably), disagreeing about trans people, very mildly transphobic; but you put the lot of 1s like you in a room and the chances of radical transphobia increases rapidly. In the end as long as you can at least stop the worst transphobes that makes me comfortable. Someone saying slurs in public, trying to do something discriminatory in a bathroom, and especially regarding harassment or violence just be there for trans people. I think we can at least both agree that everyone deserves to be treated with respect and kindness. You don’t have to agree with trans way of life to a good citizen. I think as long as you can do at least that you don’t have to worry about being influenced by the bad people.
    2
  107.  @Vic2point0  The problem is, most people don’t just stop at disagreeing. They go out of their way to say hurtful stuff online, start banning transgender people, and indirectly collaborating with people willing to discriminate or act violently. Just because they don’t pull the trigger doesn’t mean they don’t provide the ammo.
    2
  108.  @abcxyz2927  That’s great for him, the one person, you’re basing your entire argument on. Now how about you explain all those people who transitioned and are happy? Interesting video we have isn’t it. 😁

  121.  @ohno7582  I prefer China's method because it is an effort at correction. Opposed to the United States where big businesses gain god-mode status and become "too big to fail". So why change when the default is you being bailed out no matter what. This would be less a problem if big business didn't have psuedo monopolies (see education), so when one fails people can relocate to a similar job like the old days. Buf we live in a world where money controls policies. And right niw those policies make it difficult for someone to even come close to challenging big businesses. And if they do...give it 5-10 years. A recession happens and resets the board for everyone but big businesses because, welll... "they're too big to fail'.

  124.  @Nwkcurly  Yeah, I don't want to be that guy that believes "because your young you don't know as much". I feel your experience gives you a lot of insite. I've been in similar shoes, probably worst. If it's anything I learned is a neighborhood are a product of it's collective. I'm sorry of your situation. Like I said, only way to keep up is for waged to increase. But business owners won't do that; they no obligation to. It's not gentrification's fault, it's a product of capitalism. Good thing is you're young. So you can get an education and leave your situation. Leave the hood and movie to a better neighborhood for your future. Don't end up like Nipsy Hustle and others who stayed there and either lost their lives or had their hard work stomped on. It's hard to see now but "keeping it real " doesn't mean anything. Your happiness and well being comes first. Don't fall into the same traps others did.
    2
  125.  @Nwkcurly  I never mentioned crime. Gentrification is inevitable if you want a neighborhood to improve. Whatever state of "keeping it real" is it isn't improving a neighborhood. I lived in the hood too. Areas that were gentrified were far better. Kids were happier, people had better jobs, there were less crime. Expensive? Yes. But you can't get something from nothing. While the places that pushed back gentrification were inevitably consolidated and became cheaper. Criminals moved in, and now it's essentially 3 kilometers of traps houses and welfare queens. You're young so you may not see the entire picture. But later on you'll get some ecomics class from your college. I mentioned it in a previous post but to keep it short:a neighborhood that improves is more valuable, thus raising property taxes, thus raises rent. If you ever want the "hood " to be an actual "neighborhood" you have to improve it. All that time and money has to come from somewhere, and the people in it have little of either. Gentrification is the only way. The only exception is if somehow a whole xommunity became wealthier simultaneously, thus freeing up time and money to invest in their neighborhood, which rarely happens especially in places near urban areas. Of course, you can reject gentrification all the same. My neighborhood did. Tried improving it themselves. And it's still the hood 20 years later, and far worst.

  126.  @Nwkcurly  Then go ahead and "keep it real " as much as you want. But you can't complain about the problems if you're the one perpetuating them. That's hypocrisy. I grew up in the hood myself. Screw "keeping it real". I worked too hard to end up back there. I'll enjoy my nice house, acre of land, with my wife and kids in this safe neighborhood.
    2
  127.  C C  Yeah, a lot of people don't seem to understand real estate. Or capitalism for that matter. A neighborhood cannot improve without money. Hence taxes. Taxes improve the area. Home owners can sell/rent higher because they're surrounding area is less bad; or they do to keep up with taxes. Boom, capitalism. Or you reject it. Don't invest in more policing, parks, cleaner streets, etc. Then watch as your neighborhood gets worst. This is why gentrification tends to raise cost. Because the maintenance to maintain the standard of living goes up. You can't get something from nothingn especially when that something you're improving needs a lot of effort, like crime ridden neighborhoods. The only exception to this are gated communities. Who are expensive because it takes money to maintain them. Either way, you need gentrification to happen. Because without it a neighborhood just stays in blight.
    2
  128. If an environment improves, the taxes to maintain the environment improves. If taxes raise the mortgage/ rent worth is higher. For example, say a bad neighborhood gets a park built. That park was likely built by city taxes. Thus, the nearby owns now have to pay higher taxes to maintain it. If they don't then the park turns into a terrible place. If they do then the neighborhood improves at the cost of everyone. If they don't get the park then the neighborhood stays the same. Most bad neighborhoods tend to want nice things like clean streets, parks, policing, etc. So they get it. Thus the neighborhood improves. Leading to the homes being worth more, either by the bank or the owners. So two scenarios happen: The neighborhood rejects this plan and remains bad and cheap. Or they accept it and improve and gain value. If the latter you have gentrification. The people who raise their value along with the neighborhood's will grow in wealth. The ones that don't and remain the same will decline. If you decline the law of capitalism will expel you to a area of your means. The benefit and edge here is it happens slowly. You can either move before it happens, or after. You value either way. You can see it coming long before the effects become burdensome, no matter what your income is, home owner ir not. Either way, it HAS to happen. It's either that or reject it and remain terrible. A neighborhood cannot improve without investing months into it. And if it improves so does the value of everything in it. Want less drug dealers on the streets? That cost money? Less gangs? Money? Cleaner sidewalks? Money. Better schools? Money. Nothing comes for free. The only other solution outside government tax based aid is gated communities, which themselves cost money, it's why they're so expensive. Either way you have to invest in your neighborhood.
    2
  129.  @yougrant1980  Yeah, I have heard of it. It was a practice encouraged in theb1960s. But we're 60 years beyond that now. Not saying it's effects doesn't stand, but we're 2-3 generations of offspring past that. If all your family is still stuck there, that's an internal problem. Either way, that's all the more reason gentrification is needed. You live in a place that Redlining has allowed to fall into decline. Gentrification could restore its value, thus removing any stigma from your neighborhood in the first place. Either way it's win win. Unless you like dilapidated neighborhoods.

  158. Studies (albeit most are still new to the taboo of the subject) have shown that it is very therapudic. It's been proven it helps therapeutically with both rapist and victims (those who can't be intimate due to the prior rape). There's currently studies to see if child sex dolls can curb pedophilia by weeding out the ("curious" pedophiles from the rapist ones. Honestly, I don't care about the ethics. If it helps improve the world and reduce sex crimes I don't care how it's done. One less person raped or molested is a miracle in my eyes.

  168. The change here is the big businesses are leaving. It's like how the big automotive industries left Detroit. California, namely Southern California depends A LOT on their high paying tech jobs to draw off-shoot industries like cars, toys, etc. A lot of startups that make it move to California to be closer to similar brands. But if their not in California this leaves a trickle down effect where all that revenue is now out of state. What really kills it is California heavily relies on taxes for it's social problems like the homeless thing, something that has already shown to been far out of control for a while now. So a direct hit like that will prove catastrophic very quickly. Over the next 2-3 years California will be suffering some major issues like no other, we're barely scratching the surface.

  239.  @shaddythewiz3836  This is very true. I grew up in the hood most of my life as a young adult. Everything from bad schools, bad parents, and social pariah keeps you down. People there put value in being what wr called "hood rich". Getting section 8, new Tims, a rolex watch, etc. People there only have dreams, so they live of them and imitate the celebrities on TV. Needless to say I hated it. It's why I joined the military and left. That and my abusive mother. I wish my neighborhood would get gentrified. There's abandoned crack den buildings with graffiti on them, a lot of worn down buildings in a few places, and the crime all but runs the streets. And it's not like a "community" isn't trying. My grandmother has been part of one for decades. I remember when they fixed up a park from where she lives in the 2000s. The park was made gang territory in a couple weeks. More bad than good comes from efforts there by far. The only true cure for places like this is gentrification.
    1
  240. @Badass Beaver All that stuff improves the neighborhood, driving up the worth of nearby homes. Which then raises rent and housing costs. It's how real estate values work. You know the phrase " location, location, location ". This is not even mentioning relative property taxes. You just described gentrification in a nutshell. All you'd do is create the exact problem you wish to solve with your solution. This proves no matter what gentrification is the answer. It's either that or the neighborhoods remains at risk of themselves. Trust if there was simpler solutions they'd had been done already.

  244.  David Gonzalez jr  I can agree that. That's the fundamental truth I accepted long ago. Race aside (because I lived in poor white neighborhoods too) I found the best way out is money. Because if I learned anything js money solves a lot of problems. I find people with it are far less effected by issues like this as a whole. Not saying you need to be rich, more just not lower or working class; at least not as low as you have a means to move up the latter, so gentrification doesn't get you years later. That said, I'm not without sympathy. The poor, regardless of ill intent or not, seems to be pushed around by the system. There always is an outlier that may help one poor person, but hurt another. There never is a system that works for everyone, and never will be. So I choose to not be part of the poor. Because I lived in that situation before. I've been on both sides of gentrification, both the bad and good. And what I found is it's far better to have the ability not to be a part of it at all.
    1
  245.  David Gonzalez jr  But that's the thing. At the end of the day landlords are bussiness owners too. They bought their home fair and square in hopes to turn a profit. It's part of their job and how they esrn an income. I'm not saying it's good for people to get evicted and left on the streets, but how would that be fair to the landlord? They have payments of their own they need to settle. What other solution could there be that wouldn't be unfair to the landlord? Then you have the situation we have now where evictions csn take months ahd people are squating in homes, while the landlord foots the bills. The rent laws are undeniably in favor of renters. I'm not saying that's bad or good. Just emphasising that landlords are businessmen. They invest and use their capital to make more money. It may not ever be fair, you are right. But until homes can be completely free this is the method that works, capitalism.
    1
  246.  David Gonzalez jr  No individual alone is saying gentrification is needed. It's the neighborhood that's crying for it. Business owners, investors, people who actually own their homes. All these people benefit from a better neighborhood. Places that need change.

Hell, it feels like California is changing into Michigan, Detroit after the industrial jobs all left, except it's with tech now.

  261. I like this. It makes sense to be honest. Sex is very important in marriage but not everything. You can easily date a woman and be attracted to men. There's a difference between being gay and having sex with men. Be like this man. Be true to yourself. Date women and work toward bettering yourself. Eventually you'll find the perfect girl that you can love and still be gay. Sure men still attract you, but so dies your wife.

  262. Actually I liked his views. Say what you will but he just proved you csn be gsy and still date and marry women. Being gay does not mean you're forced to have sex with men. Who are you to tell someone who they can or cannot love?

  263.  @therealrick1661  Their children have to have sex and breed with each other for it to be inbreeding. As long most his children move out of town it shouldn't be an issue. Not to mention they're FLDS, who are really into family history and by extension DNA, so inbreeding by accident in that town is fairly slim. Even less an issue if he leaves town like he mentioned he'd do.

  282. Imagine sending your kid to a Karate class to fight if sex offenders and the teacher is a pedophile. She got a slap on the wrist. If this was a male teacher there’d be prison on the line. I swear the law is extremely sexist.

  302.  @hiltonlive32grnrngr  Ok 120. Still a ridiculously exaggerated number with no logical explanation of how it's possible. Thanks though, I'll edit my last comment and fix it to say 120

  303.  @hiltonlive32grnrngr  I really don't think "120 stabs" is that high on a family's priority list. Medically and logically it is just impossible, unless people in public watched some dude stab a corpse an extra 195 for 10 minutes. My main reason why I find this heavily exaggerated is she likely died long before the 200th stab. Unless the stabs were extremely shallow, in which case she'd very likely escaped, which she didn't. But at the same time it doesn't say " her corpse was mutilated for several minutes in the car on the street". So legally it's inaccurate too. It all seems like media over-exaggeration.
    1
  304.  @hiltonlive32grnrngr Think about that though. Why count and memorize each individual stab? Not to mention 120 stabs is like roughly 2 minutes of straight poking. It just sounds waaaaay too impossible.

  318. In Short: Old money that doesn't split inheritances (or split as much) cause a concentration of wealth that override any world wealth through centuries of strict controlled inheritances. In Long: Old money is essentially money that isn't accumulated through 1 generation, but rather multiple. Essentially a level was now found beyond old money. I'll coin this, Matured money. Matured money is money that is not only old but now gains money without anyone working for it, at all. It's not like a old money person who owns a rotation of real estate and a few solid businesses and long stocks; rather, these are people who founded stuff that existed centuries ago, or 4-5 generations back. Essentially, the wealth has matured and became so "old" that they no longer are controlling the wealth, they literally are the economy. Or in American, it'd be the equivalent of California leaving the U.S all at once, from just ONE family leaving the Dutch.

  319. If there is a class system within a nation, then there is a class system among the world nations. We're all separate nations but we share the same Earth. For example, a poor person in America is a rich person in Africa. I don't think there is anything wrong with this, or more accurately it is the natural order of things. A rich person in Africa is still rich, a poor person in America is still poor. Nations are created to contain their economy. This will remain true as long as nations exist or resources become infinite.

  320. California is on it's way to collapsing like Detroit did. The place is amazing for the rich but it's platform is weak. Basically it's like trying to build a pyramid with a weak base. So when the base started to shake from a rocky economic struggle like the pandemic, the top shook harder. It's why the first people to leave were the upper class, followed quickly by the middle class who own homes they could sell for literally an average of half a million dollars. This is not even mentioning the economic crash of 2008, so all those weakened structures just opened back up. Add this to tech (which ironically California attributed to) makes it that you don't need to live in California to get the "California" lifestyle. So you get people leaving. Add that the state is overcrowded and it's a sinking ship getting gradually worst, with well rumored bad policies that hurt everyone but the extremely rich or the homeless, it has very little reason to live there. Not that California doesn't have its positives, but like the video said California is following the same problems Detroit started and VERY fast. And I don't about you, but I wouldn't want to get trapped there like the people who didn't flee decades ago ended up happening, now with their grandkids living in one of Americas guilty scars.
