So all these countries forked over 1 billion USD?

Sure, but name one that is as big and spread out like the US? We are unique in that regard.

We are blaming you for the fact that we’re not seeing protests every day…

This is just not possible and the rich are banking on that. It would have to become much much worse before people will risk their own employment, access to medical benefits, and personal security so that we can march.

It’s easy to suggest those things but in reality it’s just not going to happen.

Oh no, as if we don’t already have decent wine here, mostly in blue states anyway.

Some of these comments are awful. Apparently, if we all aren’t wrapping ourselves and children with explosives and becoming Jihadists overnight, we’re not doing enough.

This is a class war. The rich have taken over all the checks and balances in our system to where they can break every rule and comfortably get away with it; all the while getting richer and us poorer. We’re powerless and spread too thin geographically to do anything meaningful. Maybe we do need to get that radical, but I really hope it doesn’t ever need to get to that point.

And it’s not just the candies either.
