US ELECTORAL MAP - COUNTIES

hang on... wasn't there some sort of political ideology that said 40 years ago 'the rich get richer and the poor get poorer! if we're in charge we'll end wealth disparity!' ...?
Can't think of the name of it... liberal something... hmm...

If only there were enough wealth in the cities to make social safety net programs self-sustaining with enough to even expand it to the red areas OH WAIT THAT WAS THE POINT YOU MISSED!

'If only there were enough wealth in the cities to make social safety net programs self-sustaining'

was never possible, will never be supported by those who would be expected to pay for it, will never happen, your politicians will never vote for it , 40 year of trying and more disparity than ever.

Your stupid welfare pipedreams will never happen unless people like you actually put your money where your mouth is and send a cash gift to the government to cover it.
Only problem is that you wont and never will because you expect a federal mandate for everyone... but that never happens so you just go year after year hoping for services to magically appear whilst paying nothing more than anyone else to make it happen.
Sad.

You want the services you pay for it.
YOU make it sustainable through voluntary additional payments rather than wishing it into your hentai pillow or whatever it's called.

So what, that means they get to cheat and control everybody else?
