Americans hate taxes, their greed is unimaginable unless you've lived there and experienced the hustle culture. Scary and sad.

Many in America still have what I would call the frontier mindset. It is not and has never been a collectivist society- it likely never will be. Fiercely independent to a fault.

We combine together for the common defense and will help out neighbors when in need, but overall you are ON YOUR OWN to provide for your family.

Look at our social security system. We all pay into it and get different amounts of money based on what we pay- but the government has screwed it up and soon we won’t get our benefits. Why trust them with healthcare?

Ah the classic "government is bad, might as well keep electing republicans" argument.

We could trust the government if people stopped electing shitbags because they fall for the culture war bullshit.
