Yeah, and also the welfare system has screwed us over time and time again.
And I feel like for some of us, we're complacent with being dependent on the system and not wanting to do the hard work anymore.
Yeah.
It keeps you like stagnant.
And it keeps you stagnant mentally, so you don't want to, like, it's not motivating you to do more.
Yeah.
It's between the employer and the employee.
Like, it doesn't need to be a government intervention type of thing.
Yeah, that's just not the reality at all.
That's the worst thing that can happen to us, to be honest, in my opinion.
I think the government plays a role in controlling certain things, but when it comes to, like, I feel like people forget that there is state government, there is local government, and real change happens at the state and local level.
And it's not coming from the executive branch all the time.
You know, like he has a job to lead in a certain way.
But at the end of the day, a lot of these problems are focused on like local issues.
You're like city council members, the mayors in these cities, the governors in these cities.

They just direct their problem at who the news tells them to direct their problem at.
It's not Gavin Newsom.
It's Donald Trump's fault.
You know, obviously, like I grew up in the South, so we had Republican governors by like the week two or three of COVID.
