Why is the USA the only country to have those problems, AND complain about getting free stuff?

[โ€“] dan@upvote.au 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Some people in the USA want a solution that immediately fixes every possible problem, and don't quite get the concept of starting small and fixing other stuff over time.

It's the same with gun control. Some states want to tighten gun laws, and some people are like "that won't solve all the problems! We need nationwide laws!". Sure, but why not accept the win that more and more states are starting to do something, rather than complaining that some problems still exist?
