I admire your optimism but if climate change doesn't take us or this country even makes it past the next election cycle the current system 50 years from now will be the same. I suggest reading some theory and books that haven't been tainted by capitalist and imperialist propaganda. My money is this country doesn't make it another 10. It can't at this rate without an outright turn towards fascism, which just like in the past the right is pushing us towards.

The 15 year old is a "validated gang member", I think it's safe to say he's frequently involved in things someone his age shouldn't be involved in.

Can confirm. Was a pool guy in the 1980s, I knew the LA/Orange county grid like the back of my hand when I was done 2 years later. Drove all over the place at least 4 hours per day from pool to pool. Thomas Guides for the win.

Not only that. Jesus is a prophet for Muslims. And his mother Maria is a very important figure in Islam too.

Have you ever been issued a work phone?

For many people it is their only phone. It's a perk and usually just means you can use it like a personal phone but you can also access work email.

Dammit now that song is in my head

To be fair, he didn't intend to be seen! /s

Congress has become a lucrative job for politicians which it is was never intended to be ,maybe limit them all to a single term ,no pensions , etc and they can't return for several cycles to allow others to come and go . There definitely should be no lobbyists or corporate sponsorships. All we have now is government for sale and the average person is not relevant to any of them. For me the lunacy ,greed and blatant hypocrisy of the Republicans is so obnoxious they are unbearable.

>COLUMBUS, Ga. -- Police have arrested two people — one just 15 years old — in connection with a shooting in a Georgia city last week near the Alabama state line that left nine children injured.

>Police did not release the teenage suspect's name but said he was a “validated gang member” and was taken to a youth detention center on one count of aggravated assault, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. D'Angelo Robinson Sr., 35, was booked into the Muscogee County Jail on eight counts of aggravated assault.

>Police Chief Freddie Blackmon said at a news conference a day after the shooting that an altercation apparently took place at a party nearby and it spilled over to the gas station when the shooting began. Further details were not provided, but Blackmon said the incident remained under investigation.

What kind of party is this where a 35 year old and a 15 year old are both attending?

Sounds a lot like the American dream. Let the people work hard with promises of if you work hard you will be rewarded. Money just goes to the top and stays there instead.

Not like that everywhere but it’s soooooooo common.
