So news came out today that the despicable Steve Mnuchin, the asswipe who made millions off of illegally foreclosing homes on innocent people- tried to bill the American taxpayers for his honeymoon.
$25,000/hr for a private government jet. To Italy, France, and Scotland. For several weeks. But noooo, the REAL villians here are the welfare queens who dare take that measly $50/wk to buy food, because you know, who needs things like food??
Oh and don’t forget that trip to Fort Knox where scumbag+wife literally took a tour to see all that gold they’re planning to loot. And that trip HAS been billed to the American taxpayers.
These assholes are robbing us blind. Well, they used to do it coverty but now are so brazen they do it openly. Because nothing ever happens to these assholes, ever. They rob the poor and middle class so people are struggling just to put food on the table. Most are paycheck to paycheck. But who cares? We’re rich and we can do literally anything we want. Who’s going to stop us? The poor who have no power? Nah…
It’s not just him and his despicable wife. It’s not just one or two or 20 “bad apples.” THE WHOLE COUNTRY is littered with these assholes.
And people wonder why I hate humanity and have lost hope in people. This has been going on since the dawn of time, for thousands of years, in ALL countries, with varying degrees, but nonetheless all.

Yep this is how humanity works now. Well some people are still fine and dandy but most of them became trash now.
“Democracy” is a fucking joke. People say we voted for these politicians, but every election is a joke. Crook #1 vs Crook #2, take your pick. And if you don’t like the choices then jump off a bridge because the government doesn’t need people who think for themselves. I’m SO fucking disgusted. The one shred of hope I have is that these asswads in power are NOT representative of the human race, no matter how much they say they are. Believe it or not, I have faith in humans as a species. But how the hell are we going to progress as a species when we are completely controlled by these rich clueless idiots who wipe their asses with 100 bills. Anarchy is looking better and better. It definitely beats plutocracy (society ruled or controlled by the small minority of the wealthiest citizens) which is what we’ve got, masquerading as “democracy”.
Yeah, and here I am working another 80+ hour week. Hooray higher tax bracket. I love paying $240 a week in taxes. If only I could do all my financial transactions in some South American country so I could avoid having to pay any income tax at all.
Agreed. It’s all bullshit. But that’s how it’s always been and that’s how it will always be. I think Elrond said it best in LoTR, after Gandalf said “It is in Men that we must place our hope.”
Elrond: “Men? Men are weak.”
Just because it’s always existed doesn’t me we shouldn’t be pissed about it or try to do something about it. Or at least steer it back into the “not as bad” time period like the 50s and 60s, where people had *some* chance at economic mobility and a financially viable life and not the sh*t storm we have now.
As long you steal it legally, by the rules of the club, like Steve Mnuchin does there is not a thing wrong with it, it’s just legalized larceny. Sorry all I can manage is sarcasm at this one.
I wish characters like The Punisher, Dexter, or Robin Hood were real. Those who go after the bad guys because, lets be honest, the bad guys IRL rarely ever ever get punished, especially the bad rich f*cks. Did a single wall street guy get the slammer for f*cking the economy and creating the 2008 financial crisis? Nope. I want some superhero villian to whoop their collective arses.
