    A great nation is judged not by how many millionaires and billionaires it has, but by how it treats the weakest and most vulnerable amongst us.

        People need to start learning financial literacy and have self responsibility. I'm all for temporary safety nets for people, but able bodied people need to get back to work as soon as possible. I do agree that the Health Care System needs to be fixed.

        Busy while tweeting, gotcha. As far as developed countries go, our social programs are garbage. It’s built to keep the poor in poverty. You don’t even have to look into it that hard to see it.

        That’s beside my point. I didn’t ask what other “developed countries” social programs are. Social security is turning in to one of the biggest scams for young American citizens. I don’t trust our government to properly allocate funds from taxes no matter what the program is

        (And yes that includes defense). I’d rather not give them the opportunity to waste tax dollars at all by substantially decreasing tax revenue via repealing the 16th amendment. Not saying taxation itself is theft but when the money isn’t spent efficiently it gets dangerously close

        I live in the Netherlands and come from Ireland. Both highly successful capitalist economies but where the poor are looked after. Socialism is a spectrum...

        I’m from Canada and feel the same as you. Americans hear the word “social”-isn in any form and immediately jump to the extreme. They refuse to look at the systems it’s western semi-allies at this point (Russian seems to be the new best friend) have...😳🙄

        Agreed. The Trump right in the US seems to have not traveled outside of the US and is Xenophobic and generally poorly educated.

        I love your country. The Netherlands was one of the cleanest, no homelessness, amazing culture, history was recognized and welcoming people. Can’t wait to go back in November :)
