Just do your own research on what happened before the government distribution of welfare. Don't want to? Go read a letter written by a soldier before public education. Go find an 8th grade test from the 1800's. How bad off were they?

I can google just as quick as you can, Thor.

You didn't answer my question. "Do your own research" is the same cop-out used by flat earthers and creationists so they don't have to cite sources and give arguments.

Aside from all that crime , yeah sure you were crushing it.

I did have my Nintendo and several games taken on a burglary once when I was probably 12 or so. The police knocked on our door, had the stuff, in the middle of the night. They had the kid, my sge, black kid I knew from school, and I remember my dad not pressing charges. He got caught in someone else's house...had been in several that night. He was scared shitless lol. My dad said he was in enough trouble when I asked why he didn't press charges.

It's like crime or welfare, choose one. Lol.

The EU is a circle-jerk club of bankers, oligarchs, corporations and speculators that are pushing the European population towards fascism.

Won't be long until it crumbles.

Dude we were crushing it in the 70's....eradicated hunger...what a utopia. Reagan was awful. Most whitewashed president in history.

I had to live through the Carter years while you were shitting in your pants my friend.

Considering some of the highest per-capita crime areas in the United States are rural areas, I'd say we'd be better off without poverty in general.

It's a FACT that poor people have lower IQ. IT'S A FACT that poor people create more CRIME AND VIOLENCE in society!

It's a FACT that poor people drain resources.

It is a nasty thought experiment but I will ask it. Would America be better off if we euthanized everybody who makes less than 30k/year?

I think we should euthanize everyone making under 300k/year
leave the land to the innovators
more space for factories and robots that build more factories that build more factory building robots
