The rot at the top necessarily propagates to the bottom. "The fish rots from the head down." Where do you think the criminals at the bottom learned their criminal activity?

Yes, and as a fresh immigrant from Bangladesh you'll have access to US government funding to purchase businesses, etc, that are not available to natives.

Why do you suppose it is that Bangladeshis, Pakis, Indians, etc run all the gas stations in the USA? Because the white/black/Native American natives are just too shiftless?

The reason they are importing you folks in droves is because you're just smart enough to push the buttons, and just dumb enough to drink the Kool-Aid.

Yep. The entire purpose of the "public" road system is so the government can control people. It has nothing to do with any kind of "public utility", as is claimed and the common idiots believe. Any benefits the public receives are accidental at best. Great comparison.

> Meaning, the people who most need therapy are often the ones to also believe they do not need it.

Yeah, and some of the people who need therapy the least are also often the ones who know they don't need it.

If you're so good at solving all your problems, why is your entire so-called "civilization" a cesspool that's getting shittier every decade?

See if you can accurately discern the difference between a man and a woman before lecturing anyone on their need for "therapy."

Because it was a golden age. Completely unlike the cesspool in which we now dwell.

This is closely related to the "There's no point in addressing that problem, because if/when it does become a problem, you'll have 10,000 other bigger problems to worry about" mentality -- which quite ironically, inevitably results in 10,001 things going wrong at an inopportune moment.
