KKKanada is like AmeriKKKa with free healthcare; i.e., it's still dogshit in almost every other way.

Isn't it odd that when we speak of the "wealth" of the lower class it's always in comparison to the rich. Like, I never think to myself or say to my peers, my $1000 in savings is my amount of "wealth".

motherfucker really just read an article about the obscene wealth of the 1% and found a way to blame it on the 19% of not obscenely wealthy middle class

Dude, the problem is the guy who owns a smaller xacht for his mega-yacht, not the father that can afford for all his kids to habe a hobby.
