  3. @Ali Bumaye,  Couldn't agree more. That stupid fucking wall is more of a symbolic security blanket, so delusional folks can feel safe from the "monsters." Over 1 million Mexican illegal immigrants/migrant workers left the US in 2017. We're gonna need a wall to keep 'em in! Granted, there's a lot of shit that comes through the Mexican border, but the idea of a wall being able to fix those problems is hysterical. And yes, the military budget is outrageous. We have a 612 million dollar budget and ranked as the most lethal force on earth, by three fold. We're still making tanks! The Pentagon even said we don't need them haha, yet, we still have contracts to make nearly 120 more by 2026. Plus, there's 1.3 million soldiers on the pay roll, W aren't at war! 😂 As for the wealthy being taxed, it's preposterous that they aren't. Here's a crazy statistic from the Economist. In 1988, CEOs on average made 33 times more than the average working citizen. In 2003, that number has climbed to 1300, roughly. Imagine what that number is today, knowing that companies like Amazon and the silicon valley organizations have emerged. The dispersion on wealth in the US is unbelievable. I'm all for capitalism, but it might be time to cap the wealth in this country. Why does anyone need more than a billion dollars? As much as I love Elon, he's more active in space than our federal government. I love the capitalist competition and conglomerate business concepts. But what happens if someone becomes wealthier than our country? We are headed towards some different times. I'm both interested and frightened to see where we end up. Hopefully, I'm being an irrational and paranoid weirdo.
