I'm getting so tired of hearing from politicians how good the people of the U.S. are. A lot of good people here to be sure. But, when so many were/are willing to vote for a moral degenerate like Trump or sat on their hands and let such an atrocity happen, how "good" as a country can we really be?

Poverty is a policy decision.

Concentrated wealth is a policy decision.
