omg the USA is turning to feudalism

@@fiachuAnimation3537 "is turning to"?? For a very long time now, it seems to me that americans desperately want to live in some sort of monarchy. They behave as though they want a King, rather than a president. I mean, you guys have made it apparently impossible for a President to be "fired." In Australia, we haven't had a Prime Minister serve a full term of office since the year 2000. John Howard was the last PM to serve a full term and since then, every PM we've had has been "fired" in one way or another, with none managing to last the full four years (though Scott Morrison, the current PM, looks like he's going to go the distance). Every other developed nation is the same. If a head of state is deeply unpopular and thus unwanted (as head of state) it's relatively easy for him/ her to be replaced. But for some reason, this is almost impossible in the usa. It's as though you want a King, who's above the law and answerable to no one. Additionally, you guys really seem to like electing dynasties (Roosevelt, Kennedy, Bush, etc). So it really seems like you guys WANT to have a monarchy, or at least to be ruled by a monarch, provided that some of you have a say in determining who that monarch is. By which, I mean, it seems like there's a *significant* proportion of americans who would prefer that black people not be able to vote, that criminals should similarly be ineligible to vote and so forth... So it seems that you guys don't want EVERYONE to have a vote, but for those lucky few who are allowed to vote, it seems like they want to elect a King to rule. If the King's son (the son of a former president) runs for election, those same people seem to love electing him to be the next King... So, "Yeah," to an unbiased, outside observer such as myself, it really DOES seem like the usa is turning to feudalism and monarchy.

It really makes one creative with cooking though. Gotta conserve those nutrients and carbs, so you may be goddamn sure I'm cooking as fast as possible, with minimal effort, at the same time doing stuff to food, Gordon Ramsay would pass out after seeing... that at the same time actually taste like food and cost per month as much as my water bill. Good side, I'm finally losing weight. Bad side, I gonna run out of extra weight soon, and start getting rid of the weight I need. If someone told me to handle his 'meat', I'd probably excitedly go for my iron skillet that is lying unused for a year, before realizing what he meant. And even then, it'd probably go back to calculating how many meals I can get per handling.

Apparently feeding the homeless also makes them lazy bums now....

Makes people angry, depressed and desperate.

I can confirm hunger makes you pass out. I have cut myself to one meal per day so my son can have three. I had no spare weight to lose prior to losing my job and suffer from an illness that causes chronic pain and inability to regulate my heart rate, blood pressure and temperature among other things. I passed out and required an ambulance twice in two years at my last job, so you can guess who the first one cut was when it was time for my employer to conserve money. It is a real treat to apply for jobs as required by unemployment, get a rare response, and have to see the look of disappointment hit the face of the interviewer when I have to use a walker just to get to the chair.

it's the old 'each on their own' trope the have-it-all shove down the throats of the have-nots via the media for decades. any attempt at solidarity with weaker parts of society is labeled 'socialism' or worse and this thinking is most prevalent in the US and other anglo-saxon countries.

This!

Yeah. I grew up with kids that just didn't eat. That's reality. You learn about interesting things tho. Dipping toast in chocolate milk, and a butter n sugar sandwich is tasty. Tomato and mcdonald's ketchup sandwich is not.

oh, believe me, people say that right up until they lose their job, then yell real loud for the help ~they~ "deserve".

Honestly, I think if someone gets caught stealing food because they have to eat, the community should be helping said person be able to at the very least get daily warm, healthy meals, and clean water to drink

@@hedgehog3180 I don't know, I've been hungry and poor this year - I don't live in the US and did receive social security - just enough to get by. It was no treat, it made me feel very crappy, 1 for taking money from the government - other people. 2 because I was still hungry and ate mostly potatoes, butter and milk, with some knock-off fruits and vegetables, or big quantities of frozen pees. It did motivate me. But there's a difference between letting someone starve because you simply don't care, or helping someone out, just to get by. I made use of the social security for 4 months. In that time I found a new job. If I would've gotten more money, the incentive to find work would've been less (though my morals are pretty high and I wouldn't want to be that opportunistic, feeding off of other peoples' tax: I know people who would). I've had a few crummy jobs that paid very little and required much physical labour, calling me in on a weekly basis (DHL): I still wasn't that happy. I started working in healthcare now, I've always worked in production where you are just a number... Making cookies, medical supplies, freaking garage doors/docks/levelers for trucks (operating a machine in most cases). Done this work now for three months, I make less than I did before I got layed off. But I'm a lot more happy. I get to take care of people and help them out, all day. It's not a great job - it requires a lot of attention to feces and the like, but it is very rewarding in a non-financial way. My presence is very important to others. I don't need money when I matter to others. Laura should have a little talk with some ancient carpenter. On a similar note: I don't think Laura is very happy...

Exactly, and who can blame them? ... Ah... things are so messed up in the US. Here in The Netherlands I have been on unemployment a couple of times in the last 10 years. You get paid within days and only have to do 1 work searching activity per week. It is also a set to 70% of your last income (75% in the first two months), so you can keep your house and your kids can still enjoy their normal life.

I think I read this book. Les Miserables.

@Jocelyn My absolute first thought. You can literally track areas that are poor to areas with higher crime because there is some truth to what she is saying. Then the people who had to commit those crimes and get punished find getting money even harder and the descent continues.

@@ShezMarvalouz Funny how everyone has their own hot take on the definition of humanity. The true traits of humanity are our most primal desires that are suppressed via indoctrination. Greed is more synonymous with humanity than empathy. Humanity isn't what society molds you into, humanity is what exists BEFORE society molds you into your current state of being. When a child pushes another to the ground and takes his candy, that is humanity.

Yep. When you need help right now and your program benefits are weeks or months away, you can't wait.

so robbing her is ok then!? because that's a way out. right!? and it's legal because she just told us it was.

Exactly!

The thing about civilization is that it keeps people civil.

I agree, hence we should close the border.

Bro, no need to get the middle east involved in this.

@@tendertuna9157 if there’s one good thing about (not saying the real name of this) “middle eastern culture,” it’s that believers are supposed to give 1/3rd of their food/wealth to the needy... But most will only give to the needy fellow believers.

She kind of said let them eat cake.

Sure.... But will it be legal? Laura clearly never struggled a day in her life

Crime happens, not from lack of prisons, but from lack of decent jobs.

Where I grew up people that were hungry did find a way to eat, and hopefully we don't go where they went

That quote gives me "if I had to suffer, so do you" vibes.

When I’m hungry I’ll find a way to eat?? We really are at the same point France was during the revolution. I’m about ready to eat some people

Or revolution.

@@nathanmckenzie904 when enough people are hungry moral becomes negotiable

Right!!! Desperation also creates thugs and drug dealers

i'm from a socialist country and got essentially free money for 2 years. i was being a loser for 2 years, only playing games, eating pizza and not dating at all, becoming a fat slob, lived unhygienically and so on, because i knew i didnt have to impress anybody, i didnt have to perform and i wouldnt have to starve if i lived like that. after two years the money stopped because even socialist governments know when enough is enough so after another few months of lazing around, borrowing money, asking for food and so on i finally got my shit together, got myself a job and am supporting myself and my fiancée that i found soon after eversince. you know what's the worst part in my cv? not that i lost my job, because my boss gave me excellent references. it's that i didnt do shit in my life for 2 years and didnt have a single recent flattering photo of myself. it was considerably harder to go to job interviews like that, instead of right after losing my job, still fit, still full of drive, not fat, still well fitting clothes and all that. government benefits and my shitty attitude stole 2 years of my life. luckily my parents didnt support this. ps: 2-5 applications a week is a lot for john oliver? he has no clue because he probably never had this issue. my city asked for TWELVE a week, which i did, but shittily because i knew i'd get money anyway. you know what i changed after those 2 years when i ACTUALLY wanted to get a job? i wrote 12 applications a DAY and i wrote decent ones, which as said, eventually landed me a job.

@@onetwothreefour3957 so you - a single white man - think is everybody is like you? Btw which "socialist" country are you from and when you describe yourself as unhygienic: might you have been depressed?

Yeah Laura Ingraham is that type of person that thinks banana republics are just clothing lines not a result of businesses overthrowing governments for profit.

@@onetwothreefour3957 Pics, or it didn't happen.

Holy crap that’s horrible, so good you finally got out of that. I was about to suggest move to Narre Warren, their centerlink is way nicer but I’m glad you had family to support you though it. That is so messed up, I hope you heal from this trauma.

Yes, it was awesome.

😂😂😂 yooo!

since the pandemic started UC is a much better version of itself- they've shifted gears into assuming that every claim is real rather than every claim is false... ofc it's still the same system designed to deny claims, but it's being used like a better system for now. the moment the emergency is over however, it'll need fixing.

@@sjs9698 the system is bot designed to deny claims, clearly you have no knowledge of the system itself. It is yes in a better place than it was before and all claims are treated as legitimate though naturally they need to check information to ensure that people access it lawfully but then I dare say you would hope they are ensuring it's going to correct and legitimate claoms

I am so cheerful whenever someone besides myself observes what's what

“If you’re hungry, you find a way to eat,” said Laura’s late mother. Does that mean Laura’s Mom was okay with Laura cannibalizing her if Laura got hungry?

We can't "eat the rich"...they have no taste!
