@EshaAA33 No are you outraged that politians who make around $200k are worth millions? Or Hollywood personalities living in $15 mil mansions abd owning 10 homes because they pretend to be someone else on a movie screen ? Elon is a businessman bringing jobs legitimately to the community.

My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us!
I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around.

I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it.

Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose.These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought.

We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!!

Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ??

Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity."

Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in.

When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided.

My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress.

Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country.

People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism.

Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism.

We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."

@JesusisChristX I could care less. Then don’t call me a Catholic. The lord is the only one who matters and he knows peoples hearts. The pope is a man.

@joeroganhq Keep telling us these dudes are comedians not political activists.

[Cynthia Lees Collins @CyndiLC]

@PatriotSassy He’d do far more good focusing his efforts on the genocide in Nigeria , the Iranians killed by their government. These are the things a pope should be trying to impact not how we feel about a politician.

@ThrillaRilla369 What wild to me is a few years ago before I retired I actually had employees who told me they couldn’t come in because they were hung over. And people gave them points for honesty. Smh.

@dom_lucre If you want to fly on an airplane you need a star ID. To get it I brought my birth certificate, divorce decree, marriage license to my second husband +two bills with my mailing address. And I had just moved. This isnt new.
