Ooh, I see. Your argument is not that "people with jobs don't go hungry in the USA", but "it's worse in Latin American countries famously exploited by the USA".

Got it.

Keep on moving those goalposts. Now you're claiming I think the US is innocent or a good country. lol

They don't do a fraction of what they should do. There's way too many ignorant fucks in this country letting countless wealthy assholes do whatever they want. It's disgusting.

I think the poorest in the US, the ones working shitty retail jobs, have it much better than they possibly realize. Don't get me started on the vast excesses of wealth afforded to the middle class or anybody making more than median.

Odds are you have some serious privilege too, just because you're on here with the rest of us.
