The countries where the lowest incomes live best are the countries where there are the most rich people, and amid all that envy and that garbage about inequality, which is nothing more than a neo-communist term, they forget to mention that low-income people in developed countries today live more comfortably than a king did three centuries ago, but since they are driven by envy and conceive of wealth as a pie rather than a process, they cannot see beyond that.

These people are not living like kings. They are living in trailer parks addicted to drugs and dying of preventable diseases because they cannot afford medical care. The reason they vote for Trump is because he gave them an easy scapegoat for why they can’t buy nice homes and can’t feed their families without working multiple jobs while still having massive debt.

Instead of solving their problems, Trump actually ends up exacerbating them. Tariffs increase their cost of living and the few government benefits they did have are being taken away so a few billionaire owned corporations can extract more resources and get bigger tax breaks.
