If that's your worldview, you're committed to the position that no American should ever complain publicly about anything. You lost your job and now you're dying of cancer because you can't get insurance? Most people don't even have access to a sanitary hospital. Go fuck yourself, American cancer patient. I laugh at your first-world problems.

I'm sure there's stress involved, but worrying about whether you are going to be able - shikantaza 2012-03-01 10:55:53 (73 views)

That's not the point of her article. - live 2012-03-01 11:03:45 (59 views)

well, yea... and that's why I felt her article wasn't even really responding to what is infuriating - shikantaza 2012-03-01 11:10:48 (41 views)

It's shitty to pull all your kids out of private school to put them into the public school system - fanofnothing 2012-03-01 11:06:18 (53 views)

That's still not the point, though. - live 2012-03-01 11:08:11 (65 views)

The prevalence of this mentality, though, is why Mitt is dead meat. - Dick Nikon 2012-03-01 11:30:13 (48 views)

Agree - live 2012-03-01 11:24:51 (37 views)

yes, but again, it's not responsive to what people are frustrated about. - shikantaza 2012-03-01 11:15:31 (47 views)

If being unemployed for a couple years is the worst thing that happens to you, how bad is your life? - live 2012-03-01 11:24:08 (47 views)

Bad argument to make - Flashfire 2012-03-01 11:58:10 (46 views)

Why? - live 2012-03-01 12:00:15 (36 views)

Do you really have to ask? Like fanofnothing said, it's all about context - Flashfire 2012-03-01 12:08:17 (47 views)

So just imagine that rich Americans look at poor Americans like people in another country - live 2012-03-01 12:09:17 (50 views)

No need to imagine it. They do. - Earl j. Slick 2012-03-02 16:09:53 (33 views)

Because we couldn't care less about subhumans in other countries. See: Iraq - Dick Nikon 2012-03-01 12:07:01 (33 views)

Wow, you are missing the point - live 2012-03-01 11:31:22 (47 views)

Poor here is rich nearly anywhere else, yes. Cost of living here is also higher compared... - Flashfire 2012-03-01 11:58:55 (37 views)

Let me know when you take this more seriously, thanks. - Flashfire 2012-03-01 12:09:06 (34 views)

No, I think you're missing the point. Protecting your health is in a different class of concern - shikantaza 2012-03-01 11:36:51 (46 views)

Do poor Americans get to complain when their house is broken into and their TV and jewelry stolen? - live 2012-03-01 11:43:06 (53 views)

sure... my point is that it's a different class of concern than being stabbed in the process. - shikantaza 2012-03-01 11:45:35 (30 views)

Its all about context. - fanofnothing 2012-03-01 11:44:52 (39 views)

What context is that? - live 2012-03-01 11:48:56 (43 views)

Even the idiots in that article didn't say their lives were worse than poor people - live 2012-03-01 12:06:39 (47 views)

I guess you could interpret the statement two ways - fanofnothing 2012-03-01 12:31:21 (48 views)
