90% of Americans don’t travel out of the country. And of the small number that do travel outside the US travel to Europe or a nice resort in the Caribbean. You start traveling to Latin America (not on a resort) and you’ll see that the middle class lives in fortified enclaves. In most of the world the poorest people…

I suppose you haven’t paid much attention to the colonial days before WWI? And then the remaining futile efforts of the 20th century?

There’s something morally and maybe biologically wrong with people who feel they deserve to keep a billion dollars.

“Communities argue that the rich are getting richer and poor poorer,” Schtulmann told the news outlet, “so it’s social justice.”
