MODERATORS
Most of us aren't so privileged that we get to pretend that politics doesn't control and shape the course of our lives.
I wish I could be as disconnected from the reality of whats happening around us as these people seem to be, genuinely envious.
I would have less anxiety, for a start.
same here; i would be homeowner, married w children and with genuine retirement retirement prospects if politics did force the dissolution of my marriage; forced me to accept college debt for a useless degree; and several jobs untenable.
it's strange to imagine myself as a capitalist. lol
