The system isn't broken...
I recently came across a very interesting if not shocking short videos called 'Making it| What it costs to live in (city).' So far, I have watched San Fransisco, London and Toronto, and I am astonished at how ridiculous living in some parts of the world has become. Many people have to live hand to mouth, and even if they have 'good' paying jobs, they are still barely getting by. And while this is showing the struggles faced by the middle class, it makes one wonder in which state the poor are in, and whether there is any chance for them to ever make it out of their poverty. It reminds me of a famous statement;
'The system isn't broken, it was designed that way.'
As you will see from the video, these struggles are faced by people who earn an amount that would make them in many parts of the world 'rich', but because of their governments, and the way the system is designed, they can't get ahead. So they work, maybe even longer than their parents did just to keep their head above water. And all the while maintaining the system that is breaking them.

Can we as a people wise up and
Stop blaming "Government."
Government is a fictitious entity designed to hide the identity of the families Who Own And Control the Government.
When you blame government you are letting the families who own and control the government off the hook.
Thank you for your comment. I agree, the families who control it are to blame. But since these families are often faceless, we have to point to the government as an entity. And when we blame the government we mean it's the entity and everyone who controls it or directly benefits from it.
It's so very nice. Have a nice day :)
Though Einstein didn't say this, that doesn't mean it isn't true.
I know that one's mine. I just made it up. You can quote me on that.
