    Some of the guys I work with, defend the oligarchs. You see, my coworkers are temporarily inconvenienced millionaires. They explained that the billionaires earned their money (not through the exploitation of millions of people), therefore they should not have their wealth taxed in a fair manner.

    Oh, and also, if you work at McDonalds, you deserve to struggle to make rent. My coworkers had to do it, therefore everyone else should have to do it as well. After all, if you want a better job, just go find a better one? If you don’t have the ability to go back to school, that’s on you. If you are unable to pay rent, you deserve to become homeless. What the hell happened to personal accountability? I’m sorry, I thought this was America.

    I can’t deal with their ignorant, racist, views anymore. Their inability to empathize hurts my soul. Everything is money to them. When I mention that we are talking about people, they say “Well who’s going to pay for that? Not me!”.
