I live in a sh!thole country. It's called the United States.

Fence sitting is one of the great obstacles to fixing what is wrong with society.
And what do fence sitters like to do? They like to navel gaze and sit on their asses
and obstruct anyone else from solving any problems.

Fence sitters are unable to come to terms with what is going on around them
or even acknowledge that there is a problem that is effecting the lives of a
lot of other people, just because everything seems to be going alright in their own lives.

Which in some ways is even worse than the hard Right Wing Conservatives
who often do acknowledge that there is a problem but that it is not their problem.

The defense of someone who wants to obstruct but without offering any real solutions to problems.

Sure you can laugh and carry on in a juvenile way because the president used profanity
Or you could even throw your hands up and refuse to get involved because you don't
want to have to deal with it, just hoping that if you ignore it it will just go away
or that somehow it will just blow over and somehow not matter at all.

Or you can come to terms with the fact that the president did something inappropriate
that could have a negative impact on how other nations associate with the U.S.

Immigrants hurt the economy, exclusively. They lower the cost of labor for rich people, and create a social burden for taxpayers. It’s a double whammy for wealth inequality.

Yes, this is all wrong. There have been all kinds of studies proving that immigrants are good for the economy.

The do cost money because they get free stuff. But after subtracting their costs from what wealth and revenues they create, they still make money for America. Both the private sector (on creasing the profits of their employers) and public sector (taxes).
