ok this is weird, they were talking about the guys on the plane not wanting to sit next to women and i wanted to read the article so i googled it and the same thing happened like 4 days before the day I'm listening to this. What a freaky coincidence, 4 year difference, talk about Baader-Meinhof phenomenon
Neither one of these guys have had civics.
The "weird" countries that don't have poverty are countries that have stable democracies. It's possible to eradicate poverty in America. It merely requires reinstalling democracy in American and fighting for the leftist political policies that stabilize it and fighting against the rightwing political policies that destroy it.
By the time you graduated from high school, you were supposed to have learned the difference between an authoritarian/totalitarian system of government and a democracy. You were supposed to know whether you were for living in a country where the people were lifted out of poverty and have the right to self govern (i.e. a democracy) or in favor of living in a country where the citizenry live in wall to wall poverty and are subjugated beneath a brutal regime (all rightwing systems of government from a plutocracy to a fascist state).
You were supposed to be educated enough to understand how to answer the question:
"Is this policy good or bad for democracy?"
If you want to live in a first world country (like Canada, Norway, Denmark, France, Iceland, Greenland, Finland, Switzerland, Germany (today),etc.), then you were supposed to advocate for and fight for leftist political policies and against rightwing political policies.
If you want to live in a country ruled by an authoritarian/totalitarian regime (like Russia, China, Hitler's Germany, Mussolini's Italy, North Korea, Cuba, Pul Pot's Cambodia, Saudi Arabia, Hussein's Iraq, Iran, etc.), then you were supposed to advocate for rightwing political policies and fight against leftist political policies.
It's absolutely painful to listen to people debate and ponder things (as if they are actually debatable), when they should have learned them as facts in elementary school.
Representative democracies are no longer theoretical systems of government. They've been proven possible and are responsible for us entering the modern world. They are not theoretical and hypothetical. There is no debate about whether democracies are real or how they work in political science. Even rightwing political scientists will tell you that the only policies that are good for a stable democracy are leftist political policies. They understand that the implementation of any rightwing policy destroys or destabilizes democracy. This is absolutely not debatable.
When you are reeducating the adults in the intercity, are you planning to teach them how to overcome the obstacles that exist for them that were created by the white majority (i.e. the same obstacles that will still exist after the reeducation)?
The problem with the underclass belly of America is entirely related to the ignorance, bigotry, barbarity, and racism of our white ethnic majority: i.e. the same group of people who have been fighting to dismantle democracy in America since it was created, because they are incapable of living in an egalitarian society where all men are created equal.
