Keep going. Eventually the physical pain of having no human contact goes away entirely. The longing for touch becomes weird and foreign. Then nothing matters and you are free finally.

They are still planning to deport all the immigrants, just not the ones taking good paying jobs. Empties trash? Jose is gone, jimmy your up. Wipes down tables at restaurants? Quadalupe you deported we giving this job to Rob. But good paying engineer jobs??? GET ME MY IMMIGRANTS!!!!

That's the game the whole way down, happening with engineers and corporations right now, except the scabs are immigrants wanting a better life and willing to take a lower pay than they are worth for the opportunity. So they refuse to raise pay for engineers as our pay slips us into lower class, then they bring in immigrants to replace us at less pay thus showing they won against us needing a reasonable quality of life in order to support their incompetency. This is not capitalism, it's how capitalism is used and why capitalism is useless, but it's not capitalism, capital is nothing without talent, finding people willing to do a job for peanuts and live in poverty for the chance to live where they don't need a nebulizer to breath is some captain planet villain shit. Capitalism may not stop it, which is why capitalism is broken, but this is not capitalism. This is slavery with extra steps. . . .

Yes, I was reeeeeal popular in college. /s

It's so hilarious how trumpkin turned on his base for musk, fuck your good paying american jobs going to american born citizens, fuck your education, we want underpaid immigrants and tax cuts while cutting social security.

In the US, if you sit a voter down, either a republican or democrat, and talk to them like a person, find out their desires, passions, fears, anxieties, and hope for the future. MOST of them want the same damn thing, they are just listening to a different source of misinformation for how to fix it. Neither Republican nor Democrat parties actually have a long term fix for any of our issues. They have temporary Band-Aids that will wear off as soon as they leave office so it looks like the next guy did it. They both do this while slowly eroding away at the very basic rights we as citizens are guaranteed by the laws of the land.

If it was a simple as forcing people to live by the same rules, it would have happened by now. But any human system is inherently flawed because it has humans in it. Corruptible, bribe able, blackmail able, selfish humans, and the systems integrity cannot be guaranteed when enough corrupt individuals exist that nothing tangible will occur. It's why the Democrats are fighting to keep the status quo, and Republicans act like things were better at some intangible point in our past, Corrupt. We have reached the point where the rules are being broken, no one in power will raise more than a finger wag against them. The Consequences fall on the actual owners. We the people. Billionaires(and up) are not a race, they are not a species, they do not deserve special treatment over any regular person, because that's all they are, a regular ass person. Unfortunately with the billionaires writing the laws, rules, and paying whatever "feels" right for everything, everything else suffers. They had a chance to pay corp taxes, they lobbied and had it changed, they had a chance to pay good wages instead they got in bed with blackrock to ensure their wages stayed just low enough their "well paid" technical employees couldn't afford a home, maybe a mobile home. They had chance after chance. It's not "they had it coming". What other damned option does any of us have at this point? My step mom died from cancer after working most of her life, medical bills took everything she had saved and a fair chunk of what my dad for retirement. What they paid in medical bills was probably equal to what a low paid CEO makes in a year. What other options do we have?!?! Actions. Consequences.

Consequences. All our lives we are taught to be very careful because life has irrevocable consequences to our actions. Don't break the law, don't work an easy job get an education, don't do anything dangerous because maybe you can't afford a deductible if you have insurance, pay your taxes otherwise the IRS will come after you. Rules. Consequences. But not to them. Not to people making more in the first day of the new year than the people they rely on to support the infrastructure. To them there is a better more gentle justice system, social system, and quality of life. To them failure is a badge of honor leading to a better life, not sleeping in a ditch because you failed to find a living space that allowed for you to buy food

Dudes mommy is out telling people to work, and his wide ass is claiming we need more h1-b Visa's because there's not enough engineers. There's plenty of engineers, they didn't pay us enough, so we walked the hell out, now Mr republican golden immigrant is saying to fix their shitty mistake, we need more immigrants. These fuck faces will do literally ANYTHING other than pay a fair wage based against cost of living. Musk deserves the Gaddafi treatment... 100%. If rent is 2k a month, that's 24k a yr, after taxes, making $25 an hour, you bring home around 35k, that leaves 11k for food, car payments (cuz you can't afford to live within walking distance of anything), gas, clothing, insurance, appliances, maintenance, and emergencies. The problem isn't "there's no engineers" the problem is greedy oligarchs that don't see a problem with you having 0 social mobility.
