Things are pretty damn bad here in the US when a sizable amount of the electorate are desperate enough to elect a devout socialist into office of the president. And spare me the LIV lofo voter BS. This is being driven by the millenial 20something crowd, and the formerly gainfully employed of every class. People aren’t as stupid as you would like to believe. When these people wise up, this country is going to go straight into french revolution territory.
Many U.S. educators, K through PhD. are indeed pleased to take credit for all you describe.
