I hate that my country is owned by corporations.
greedy
selfish
rich
fucking
corporations

We are people that make up this country, not corporations!!! What about humans. What about health care? What about all the children in poverty? What about the right to love who we want to love? What about a living wage? What about schools in poor neighborhoods as good as any other? Don't people give a damn anymore or is it lost to the terrorist fear mongers and the rapturists?

The home of the unfree and the wimpy!

1. Hey SB, bring the kids and move to Canada with Forrest, my wife and I!
We could buy a big Tudor style and share it until we are all established enough to buy our own places.

Besides, I'm sure you're lil dude could use a playmante (Nate)

5. There's an offer.
Fuck, I don't want to reveal this stuff that's even hard for me to figure out, but who cares today, huh? Makes me sad when good people feel driven out.

4. Not only that, but the corporations have their people INSIDE government.
The people supposed to regulate corporate activity are corporate entities themselves. The treasury is being redirected to corporations and a majority of people don't give a shit.

6. and a majority of people don't give a shit.
Your average uninformed American, or rather "informed with lies" appears to be stooooopid, but really, many of them are trained to believe what is fed to them by a smirking face.
