    If they aren't selling cars, maybe they're too expensive and they should lower the price of the car or raise wages enough so the cars are more affordable

    This is solid work.

    Here's the thing, Hyundai. Yes, that city is a bigger shithole than anywhere in America. But a country's type of government is not the biggest determinant of standard of living. Culture, work ethic, habits, problem-solving, ability to obtain resources, etc...those are the things that make up our quality of life.

    Just like how that city in India is considered a better place to live than other places in India, America would be a much better place too with a government that has a smaller or non-existent role.


    It's a shame that the Republicans nominated a big government guy.
    Better than voting for Hillary like you.

    If you like rivers that catch on fire, sewage in the water, terrible smog, no infrastructure, etc.

    Shut the fuck up. America is great right now. Seriously, what's so intrusive about the government right now that you can't live your life as you want?
    Crooked government, NSA spying, crooked justice system, illegal immigration, lazy fucks, the economy, government spending, president aiding our enemies etc, etc, etc. and of course socialist ass hats running around saying that's all great.

    That's a real short list.

    Only here to say fuck Bernie Sanders, with all integrity and honesty & independence & shit.

    Sanders was good in some ways and bad in others.
    However he was not proposing a system similar to venzuela, nor even close to one.

    Bernie wants even greater coercive control over people's lives. That's bad enough.

    Can you read? I said, how is the government so intrusive you can't live your life as you want. To which, nothing you discussed affects you and half the shit wouldn't change with a limited government.
