They are lazy because they have been enabled to be lazy. Chip away at their comforts and they will be begging for work.

:lol:

People with no work ethic don’t beg for work. They steal.

I hope so

It won’t happen, though. Lazy people are lazy for a reason. There will always be ways to game the system. Especially one this bloated and out of control.

It isn’t a bad first step, but it needs to be way more drastic. What we really need is a full on rebuild of our entire political system from top to bottom

A couple of things:

1. I’m speaking specifically about HR 1. The ban on sodas is inconsequential. That is easily worked around
2. By the time we save money on our poorer population not drinking Dr Pepper, our country’s economy will have crashed anyway

For a more global American audience, and certainly a global market, Superman just doesn't resonate with the populace any longer. It's just not as valuable a property as it was 50 years ago. Stop making these. The market isn't there.

That’s why Captain America completely failed as a character along with all his movies

Well, Lincoln didn’t technically free a single slave. So she’s technically correct but for the wrong reasons
