        But, but, but Paul Ryan's tax plan will save us, right? No wait! I'm solidly middle class, and my Federal effective tax rate went UP for 2017. Yours too? Gotta pay for those deep cuts for the richest 1%. But we're all too busy with our noisy Drumpf to notice, right?

        Perhaps the people aren’t ready for full democracy. Sometimes, the destitute will trade freedoms for food.

        How is poverty related to democracy you morons ?! You make NO sense and you are doing so maliciously! Stop saying something is or isn't democratic on the basis of you liking or not liking it. Tunisia / we are a democracy whether you like it or not so save your breath.
