The Trump Virus and resulting Trump depression, paired with the GOP extortion plans to hold any further recovery packages hostage unless they get billions for the wall, billions more to rebuild the FBI building across the street from Trump's hotel instead of much better locations , and full immunity civil and criminal from any consequences from injuries and deaths caused by sending people back to work without precautions or safety measures, together these failures, these blackmail schemes, are poised to grow an already out of control homeless crisis exponentially in the next months.

Florida's governor just admitted his predecessor's administration, a current Republican senator, intentionally set up the unemployment system to fail, with as many useless roadblocks as they could imagine, the only purpose of which is to frustrate applicants so much they give up, making Florida's unemployment numbers better on paper. This system has failed Florida disasterously and absolutely caused hundreds of deaths from exposure while standing in lines for days just to apply, and must have caused thousands to become homeless.

I used to work at Best Buy and take calls like this at least 2-3 times a shift. I'm just sorry that the public school system has failed these individuals so badly. Seriously, where the hell are your basic problem solving skills people???

WHERE THE HELL ARE THEY?!?!??!!?

Stewart just has such a way with words, hes so adroit and poignant with his remarks that he just cuts straight to the bone.

You could see Huckabee agrees with him, but its political suicide to say that out loud when the people keeping you in power dont agree.

misterwright hit it head on. A lot of political debates these days in the US seems to stem from an irrational thinking process, be it by religious influence, or just plane ignorance to begin with.

Id say that the education system has failed, but thats too close to a godwin invocation, this is much deeper than that, it just seems the south / bible-belt have made no attempts to actually better understand these issues outside of their gut reactions to it based on upbrining.

Its quite sad.

Imstellar,

Social Security is not a perfect system nothing is but it manages to keep close to 40% of the American population out of poverty. It's the foundation of the American way of life, successive measures to privatize the system has failed and has been the debate of every presidential candidate from Ford to Bush.

What exactly do you advocate in its place? A neoliberalist approach with completely free markets and no government?

Those conditions existed before the Great Depression. That's why FDR had to introduce the social net for those hit by economic difficulties.
