I upvoted this because it needs attention. Personally, I down vote this practice of average people paying for some rich dudes stadiums that allow them to fleece the public of even more money! Subsidizing big oil, big pharma, big tech, and sports is immoral.

... one's monetized .

Wait a minute . . . . . . .

I have a friends who calls teeth "luxury bones" because she was told they weren't needed to do her job when she asked why insurance didn't cover dental...

Oh can you run the phone company too?

And all this is because people buy fancy coffee.

Yes, and can only use the toilet during his designated break. And have a boss like himself as his allocated demon.

Or May would have worked too!

Ouch

In reply to Spike Hodge, part of my work involves child protection. Most of the offenders are relatives. Fewer than 20% are teachers/church/scoutmasters or other people in a position of trust. So far (and I confess we are a largely rural area) absolutely no drag artists.

...they think we were created specifically as a Christian nation, a lot of them. Fools, bullies, goons, and hypocrites...

Insuline is one of the cheapest medecine on earth. I mean we know how to produce it very easily and for not much money. Work in hospital in France and i feel bad when i think at how much insulin we just waste. At some point americans should just ask to european to send them insuline by postal service. I mean in France not only insuline is really cheap but it's also refunded by social security for every person suffering from diabete. Diabete is on a list of 30 chronic disease and social security pay everything related to these disease.

Go for a run at night.

I have started to cheat my brain and it works. When i go to bed i say to myself i'm gonna read at least 50 pages of this book or i will watch this entire movie, i don't care i'm not gonna sleep early. And how surprise i fall asleep. Same for the morning, if i'm motivated to sleep more and add minutes to my alarm i usually feel pretty woke up. Reverse psychology on myself helps me and that's so weird.

"He ain't laugh" hurts to read

Oh, she is 100% an american.

Wait til this person finds out how much the failing US high school system spends on team sports.

... it's almost like capitalism is a private game for a handful of folks to really stick it to the tremendous majority of decent folks...

... we've always lied to ourselves, we looooove our own particular brand of booolshit in the USA

Okay here's my view, take it or leave it. I don't care what y'all say about it. I think that Marijuana should be used medically, like for instance fixing seizures or other medical problems. My problem is with recreational marijuana use, both of my biological parents used marijuana when I was a child and needless to say they weren't present at all. They also used heroin but the Marijuana contributed a bunch. So in short, medicinal use is good and should be promoted, but recreational use is destructive

Implode faster!! Wonder how we could all help hasten capitalisms end? K!ll it before it k!lls us.

...kind of an a*****e system, ain't it?

...because some billionaires bought the right folks votes. pretty simple.

If he dealt them out to students, then this is a little offence

I loved how in the movie Day After Tomorrow the whole of america has to flee to mexico. Oh, how the tables have turned

...well, they *do* hide their taxable incomes overseas. Panama Papers?

looking at you, monsanto

I've actually met some Americans and they really do go around saying 'America is the best country in the world'. Bizarre, it's like they're brainwashed. Other western countries look at America as an example of how not to be.

I dont even consider my own country (denmark) to be the best in the world. We have it very good here, but there is always room for improvement.

3 months in the UK? Yeah right... not. Meanwhile here i am in Belgium with 4 weeks. Not complaining though.

3 month? I usually get 32 (payed) days or so.

3months? Who do they work for?!?!

The 90% of us who actually pay attention to the bullsh*t this country's "leaders" perpetrate against their own citizenry would never think we're "living the dream". Some of our friends moved to Portugal a few years back. My brother & SIL plan to move there when he retires as well (3-5 years).

A lot of Third World countries are better off than the 'Murica' Third World country.

3 Months vacation??! Who they working for?

Since you say that with such confidence, to prove that America is the greatest country, how many other countries have you visited as a comparison? “I’ve never left [insert state/town here] but I don’t need to go nowhere to know we’re the best….because Fox News says so. And also guns. The Statue of Liberty. The Constitution. Founding Fathers.” You’re just saying words with no context. “Because FREEDOM, muthafu€kers!” [walks away]

Um....3 months? No. Maybe teachers if you count all the holidays that the kids get.

To be fair, no country in the world is perfect, but I have to live somewhere, so might as well stay where I was born (UK).

Who said Americans are living THEIR dream?

What do your friends do?! 5

Brit here living in California. It's so much better than the UK. If your goal in life is more vacation time maybe you should re-think things. Remember what happened when the miners went on strike? The pits were closed and that was the end of that.
