The real problem we have is a bunch of trust fund kids whose life are really easy, and they just fight windmills, shadows in the cave.
Don Quixote battling windmills wasn't really a monster, and that's what they do.
Because everything since the moment they were born...
Their whole life, they've had everything they ever wanted.
They were born in the best hospitals, lived in gated communities, went to private schools, private colleges, got juiced into their jobs.
They've never really had anything- No struggle.
A struggle.
So they have to find struggle, right?
Like trans kids, like-
Like, there's not enough of them to change the way we act in society.
But when you're a rich kid, every bad idea ever pushed forward was done by a rich kid, whether it was Karl Marx or Lenin or any of these things are all rich kids who are bored with their lives, who hate their dads and just come up with these utopian ideas that are never going to happen.
It's like, I don't care whether it's capitalism, which we are not a pure capitalist society.
We are in a corporate socialism society, but pure capitalism where everyone can compete.
is the way you want to go.

And if you look at California, the number one employer in the state is in fact the government.
So you're going to have more and more people voting for their best needs, which is more government.
And the bigger the budget gets, the more people they got, the more people they got higher.
And most your money just goes to pay administration costs and nothing really gets done.
Example is is homelessness.
