    I mean. You can always do what the third world does and jump the hoops to live in a good country. Then you’ll be able to have a safer, cleaner, healthier life where you can afford the basic necessities of life.

    Hopefully people won’t get mad and start passing lawes to harass the new people with the heavy american accent just trying to work, pay taxes and live a decent life.

    Man, the irony is palpable.

      When the economy is bad, prices go up, wages stay low and we get fucked. When the economy is good, prices go up, wages stay low and we get fucked.

      Seriously fuck the economy, it only benefits the 1% so why should I care? That’s why you do the minimum the your job requires, don’t ever give extra, don’t be a “team player”, cause come pay time there is no team
