    I’ll take the L.

    I legitimately thought there’d be no way for them to be able to campaign enough in just a few months and I’ll gladly admit I was wrong.

      From an external viewpoint, how the fuck can it cost so much to run one campaign. Even in the uk, we are legally capped at 19 million pounds.

        Because our country is ran by oligarchs. Money is god here and if you don’t worship the almighty dollar you’re probably gonna have a bad time.

            Take a look at your police force and healthcare and say that again.

            At least your oligarchs have some empathy. Over here they’ll kill you for $5.

              Well they just refuse to invest. Take the examples you gave:

              • We have healthcare, but there is a hospital in which obese patients cannot go on one of the floors because it will collapse.
              • The police are well meaning but we cannot fit criminals in prison and have to release them early.

            Some of your oligarchs were taught what happens when the serfs revolt, and don’t want beheading to become the national past time again

              true. Doesn’t excuse the fact that some families have estates literally traceable over 900 years back. And any protest we muster wil be stopped by the rain nowdays.
