    Why do you think we’re in this situation? Practically, the majority of Americans can only learn things the hard way.

      Wait, are you telling me that I’m not going to suddenly be the person making more than 3 million dollars a year for no reason other than going to work every day, having a good attitude, and trying to climb the ranks?

      I only need to average a $1442/hr wage at 40 hour weeks. Wait… that still isn’t enough money to fall into the category of higher taxation that the democrats wanted with their Marxist attitude which was used all throughout the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, and tanked during the 80’s. Kind of a similar trend between taxation and wage stagnation but those aren’t related at all!

      ‘Majority’ is really the word you wanted to use? Less than 35%, and that’s with a possibly stolen election.
