    Again with Trump U....
    Your misplaced anger about this shitty business is really something.

  3. I am currently a stones throw from Venezuela. I know a lot of people from there. Most European countries are socialist democracies and they work very well as are many Asian countries, socialist democracy is the norm in the developed world.

    Venezuela had a rich-poor divide that was possibly very close to this just befre it fell into populism:



    Usual teams crap aside, this is an excellent neutral visualisation of how messed up America is.

    Hugo Chavez rose on a tide of populism, promising the moon to the bottom 40% of society and he tipped the boat over. His successor Maduro, also populist when not stealing everything not nailed down.

    Populism affects every type of system, capital or social biased, it ruins them both. When the president spends the treasury and takes loans to buy popularity...

    Read back about Peron in Argentina, you will understand Hugo Chavez. The language used was nearly identical and Argentina also failed. The US.. hard to say, it is very big so a revolution seems vanishingly unlikely though it could fail fast, who knows.

    Durham is the city in the RTP area that provides adequate available housing and shelter for every single homeless person between government and private initiatives (Durham Rescue Mission, etc. etc.)

    Yet many of the homeless still rather live on the streets or under bridges. Their attitude towards free housing and shelters is - "But Klunk says she's tried living in a shelter before. It was too structured and crowded."

    Translation - they don't like following rules about not doing drugs, being drunk and/or being destructive.

    To be fair -- I should commend the Durham Rescue Mission on the excellent work they do across the county.

    It is simply frustrating that so many "homeless" don't desire any help or housing... yet many cities flush endless stream of taxpayer money down this endless toilet without any reasonable results.
