Questions: Society & Politics

Should Trump or Vance even go to foreign events? They donl't want them there. Leaders ignore Trump at meetings. Lets face it. Trump and Vance are the most hated leaders in US History. Now the National Athem of US is even booed. I will tell you , if you are American , don;t visit other countries. You will get piss in your lemonaid and tea and crap or spit on your burgers. Wear MAGA gear you may not make it back to US alive.

I think everyone booed them.

I do not believe people should be penalized for building wealth, gaining success, or even making achievements that surpass others.

Where I believe the line is crossed is when there are intentions to suppress others from being able to own a home, maintain stability, and to achieve their own success. This may occur in the form of monopolies, mega industries in the business of buying up single family homes, strict zoning ordinances and codes, criminalizing homelessness, excessive regulation and red tape, and penalizing people for living in cars, RVs, sheds, and even tents to survive.

There have been cases where people have been fined, threatened legal action, and even forced to forfeit their own land for living in a camper or RV. A more-rural county near me recently passed ordinances banning camper living. I have seen videos where a woman is sitting on a sidewalk with all of her belongings in the open as officials tow her RV.

I feel many cases of homelessness, poverty, and hunger are manufactured crisises.

Trump was holding funds because he wanted Airport and Penn Station named after him to release funds. This guy is so arrogant and that is not how it is done. People honor Presidents by doing that. Pieces of shit Presidents don't get things named after them. Trump knows if he doesn't make people name things after him , he won't ever have things named after him.

There has been an ongoing shortage for years of fire trucks/apparatus and ambulances. In addition, the nation is grappling with a nationwide firefighter shortage. A senator who owns a private ambulance company told me there is also a shortage of EMS personnel.

Nationwide, there has been a 20% drop in volunteer firefighter participation since 1985. 20 percent may seems small, but it is huge.

At the same time, the fire service and EMS has not evolved too much in years, if perhaps, decades. Policymakers and state leaders have neglected fire, rescue, and EMS while everyday citizens haven't noticed much. The 100% volunteer model of service is severely outdated today, and with people having to work multiple full time jobs to stay afloat along with pessimism and nihilism in younger generations regarding the overall state of the country, we can see why no one wants to put in the strenuous training hours and time.

The only branch under the public safety realm that I have seen sustain itself and even thrive in many cases is law enforcement.
