Maybe they will feel better if they have a nice long sit-down with Sean Penn?

Coming to a Kroger, Albertsons, Food World or Giant store near you.Indeed, this is where American "civil unrest" will likely occur first.

I left out Publix because of their policy of no carryout service for looters. ;-)

It’s common to see people rummaging through trash bins on the main streets of Buenos Aires...conditions must be getting worse. A shame.

Argentina is one of the few countries in the world more blessed than the USA in terms of and abundance of resources of all kinds, land, and temperate climate.
Only socialism and the necessary corruption can screw things up this badly.

Took the words out of my mouth. Argentina..once and could be..the most wealthy nation on earth, but for socialism.
Their neighbor, Chile, has done very well with less. It just took killing off their commies and installing a democratic system of govt based on sound economics.
None of these examples matter one iota to the Rats and Rinos of our congress. They are too busy spending money and gathering power to care about the result for the average taxpayer.
We may need to do more than vote.
