This is the kind of short term thinking that created this mess. Refusal to look at the big picture because it won’t affect you directly is how your grandchildren end up in a mass grave. Wise men plant trees whose fruit they will never eat. Fools fiddle while Rome burns. I’d say you should be ashamed, but I don’t know that your still capable of such a thing. Far too many in such a position aren’t.
I’m mad that you think merely supporting democrats is sufficient. Sure, circling the drain slowly buys time, but if you aren’t using that time for something productive, what are you actually gaining? You’re one of a handful of people with the resources to actually make a difference, and you’re wasting them? At the very least stop trying to discourage people from seeing the systemic problems and start pointing them at organizations that will do what you apparently are too busy with your yacht to support.

So are you mad that I support the democrats instead of the republicans?
Or are you just mad that I recognized what the world is and made sure that I and my people would be fine?

Oh, you’re one of those people that thinks once you vote you’re no longer capable of doing anything else.
What part of my comment is suggesting that? I’m literally saying that’s exactly what people shouldn’t be doing.

Probably that part.
Does that sound like someone doing anything productive to you?
