Yesterday two of my coworkers were complaining about gas prices and how it’s all Biden’s fault, then like two minutes later they start complaining about how Biden is supposedly giving out a gas stimulus so people can buy gas, because if people get another stimulus more people are gonna stop working. It’s like… you’re mad at the government because gas prices are high, but you don’t want the government to give you money to buy the gas???
Im tired of people saying shortages of trades” all over the internet? Unless your union, most tradesmen make an average income between 40-60k a year unless you have your own business. My father was an electrician and he had a hard time getting into the union WITH experience. They pick on favoritism. I’m not sure why so many Americans can’t understand that.

That is not what we have, at least not in the US. When companies are bailed out by our tax dollars and deemed “too big to fail” that's not capitalism. When companies lobby to get laws changed in their favor, that's not capitalism. Especially when those changes don't apply to the broader market, and only benefit a select few within the market. You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig. That's all…
