It’s pitched as some sort of universal fix, but can’t be done without a vast amount of pre-existing wealth
Right, which we have. There are also enough wealthy countries and the EU that could stop causing chaos in developing countries while supporting our own, that would make everyone’s lives better.
I don’t get your point? The US is one of, if not the wealthiest, country in the world. We made money off of slaves, oil, gold, child labor and now taking advantage of our working class without paying for healthcare. It also used to be innovation, but that’s going away. We should be doing even better. How many of the wealthiest in the world live here?

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•It was completely lost on me, at first.
3·10 hours agoI should have shared the wikpedia, it explains it better. Here is a good pic that shows how it’s referenced loosely. Memes don’t always make a ton of sense and that’s why everyone is groaning in this thread because it’s being referenced again. It’s kind of like a Rick Roll at this point:

News@lemmy.world•How a US Citizen Was Scanned With ICE's Facial Recognition Tech
23·1 day ago“You just grabbing, like, random people, dude,” Gutiérrez said he told the agents after they scanned his face. The officials eventually dropped off Gutiérrez after driving for around an hour. For several days, he didn’t go anywhere, not even to the gym. Gutiérrez told his father at the time that he “got kidnapped.”
“This is a flagrant violation of rights and incompatible with a free society,” said Nathan Freed Wessler, deputy project director for the American Civil Liberties Union’s (ACLU) Speech, Privacy, and Technology Project. “Immigration agents have no business scanning our faces with this glitchy, privacy-destroying technology—especially after often stopping people based on nothing more than the color of their skin or the neighborhood they live in.”

politics @lemmy.world•GOP unveils health bill without ACA subsidies
23·2 days agoEven with two failed votes in the Senate, and the real risk of disastrous midterm elections, House Republicans remain deeply divided on the issue of the subsidies. Because of that division — and opposition to the subsidies from Republican leaders themselves — GOP leaders opted against including a subsidy extension in their health care bill.
But after moderates rebelled by trying to force votes on subsidy extension plans through discharge petitions, leadership began negotiations. Now, House GOP leadership aides said they will allow a vote on an amendment to extend the ACA subsidies in some form.
Any such amendment vote would give moderate Republicans political cover, but would have little chance of becoming law. Even if it passes the House, it will need 60 votes in the Senate.

Yep, we’re at the bottom of the Multi-Level Marketing pyramid.

The Justice Department cited laws it said allow the attorney general to demand statewide voter registration lists and to ensure states have proper and effective voter registration and voter list maintenance programs.
“States have the statutory duty to preserve and protect their constituents from vote dilution,” said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon.
“If states will not fulfill their duty to protect the integrity of the ballot, we will.” Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold said U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration does not have a legal right to the requested information, which included unredacted voter data such as full names, birthdays, addresses, and state driver’s license numbers.
“We will not hand over Coloradans’ sensitive voting information to Donald Trump," Griswold said in a statement.
