Our last left wing givt went on a spending spree, mostly paying people to do non jobs. So much money wasted and now everyone with a brain has left. Recently the govt said we have lost our first world status. But thats ok, I'm old so fuck it.

Its true, most of the west is fucked, who am I to complain when a lot of you are in the same boat.

Hyperinflation hit countries both liberal abnd conservative. This is what you partisans don't understand. it is not liberalism vs conservatism that is destroying the world.
