You got a lot to learn. It seems you are still in stage of development where everything is about you. As/if when you develop, you will realize that there other people and they got their lots in life and many times no amount of personal responsibility or hard work will fix.

When we shit on the less fortunate as it is the culture in the US, we still greating a degeneracy in the process. Homeless, drugs, abuse, etc

Things that other countries seem to manage better with social policy and capital..

In us we prefer to spend that cash on state aid and prison system ๐Ÿคก

The question was specifically about my experience, not anyone else's. I'm also not from the US, when you grow up you might realise that the internet is a global system.
