      I think people underestimate people’s proximity to richness, and how much that goes into the psychology of their attitudes towards wealth in this country. Not to say that having an uncle who owns a hedge fund means that you’re part of the bourgeoisie but it certain has an effect on your ideology and outlook in some way shape or form.

    I know, let’s enforce an illegal 15% tax on already astronomically priced imports. That’ll solve the crisis.

    How does Trump have a single supporter that’s not directly related to him?

    I started getting food from our local food distribution for me and a couple of friends. I usually show up late but yesterday I got there right when they started and there was probably 50-70 people waiting. I know we have some people in my city that need it and I’m glad we have this network but seeing so many people there even before they were technically open was still eye opening.
