Dems top policy needs to be funding social services and adding healthcare to it. I want to see my tax money actually do good things for people in this country. Not do bad things to people in other countries.

Is this dystopian game something I can afford with my savings from not paying union dues?

Same book described farmers letting good food rot because they needed to raise prices. If they gave the food away it would drop prices lower than they already were.

Like you said, banks would take people's homes and abandon them because they didn't want to set the standard that you could take loans out and not pay them.

Over 100 years ago the Great Depression proved without a doubt that capitalism is a garbage system and the only safety net it has is tax payer money.

If a bank that's "too big to fail" and they're on a downhill path, why waste resources trying to dig themselves out when they know they'll get a fat paycheck from the people.

It's insane to me that there's middle/lower class people that defend this shit.

You can list all of those things in a resume, besides maybe the traveling.

That's true, but from what I remember, half the class was either goofing off, sleeping, or straight up not there. Education as a whole isn't valued in the US anymore. Students/parents blame teachers when their kid doesn't magically absorb the information without doing any of the work or studying. Trade schools are becoming more popular because of the costs of college, but deep down, they think it's an easy way to make good money. Those trades require hard work as well. Cost of college is most definitely contributed to the overall lack of education but that's not causing the average US high schooler to have a reading level of a 5th grader in the UK.

From an owner of an OLED deck that I've used almost everyday for the past year on a plethora of games, I would recommend going for the lower end Go S steam version (if you're going for the budget route).

The OLED is showing it's age even with lesser demanding games since older games still update their graphics and such over time. Unless you're going to solely use it for 2D platformer style games. The LCD deck is a slightly less powerful version.

I'm holding out for the Go 2 and hoping there's official steamos support.

I like summer because I hate the cold so much. Idk how people prefer it. I have to wear extra clothes everywhere. If I need to work outside my hands hurt from hitting anything even lightly. Dry skin all the time. Need to warm up my car every morning. The list goes on.
