He’ll yah, we the people some how let rich ppl and companies prioritize themselves over the individual families and communities. If you want to blame anyone RIGHT Fn NOW. Do so to your congressman, senators, mayors, your god dang elected leaders whom should be responsible by representing your community. Tell them by voting, tell them by creating new policies, tell them with your epidermis sticking out during town hall meetings..

No, most people didn't even vote

but voting is practicallt useless since they only let a select few group of candidates run.

PArties like the PSL were banned from some usa states' elections despite running a candidate in those states.

These same ommissions happen in othrler countries too
