It's not a poor person problem, it's simply a reality of life. It's difficult, sporadic, unequal, and constant. But it's not going away so complaining about it on twitter won't help.

Get a pay raise, buy a nicer iphone. Earn a pay bonus, buy a bigger TV. Abnormally large tax return, get a nicer gaming system....

Its a huge mistake to think that a Muslim person you just met must be an extremist just because of a few past terror events.

It's equally wrong to say that a black man is a victim to racism without even having a discussion about his personal past.
.
Any time you hear anybody say that an entire large group of people are one thing or another, they are being ignorant. Every Time. So ignore that bs (from all political sides) and start concentrating on individual people.

If you think i'm victim shaming, i apologize. You said you're looking for fairer treatment for those who consider themselves victims. I disagree because people, in general, will take the victim path much more often than not. By definition a victim is created when things happen to them, NOT simply because someone decides to consider themselves one.
.
I hold the exact same view toward the growing class of white male victimhood. Our society will move forward when we stop treating groups of people differently as opposed to concentrating on individual people and individual circumstances.

Lets say that you ran a college campus. And you had a dorm building in a prime area that had a parking lot that was just big enough to hold the cars that belonged to the people who lived in that dorm. How would you go about making sure those people who live in that dorm had appropriate parking for their living situation and that those spaces werent taken over by people who live off campus?

I understand but does that make a difference? Should the college just let students park wherever they like?

Very few media sources will have any Trump coverage other than "he needs to be impeached".

I find it fascinating how so many people have completely forgotten about how false the 2+ year collusion/obstruction with Russia thing turned out to be yet are entirely convinced that there is substance to this Ukranian election solicitation garbage.

Unfortunately if the original estimate was $65k, seemingly absurdly overpriced, there was likely some fowl play at work. (City personal chooses their buddy as the stair contractor and in return, the contractor takes the city person on a "free" trip to the bahamas.

Yep.

Imagine addressing any problem with emotionally packed, generalized accusations and demands of self victimhood?? There is no possible positive outcome.

According to taxfoundation.org in 2018, the top earning 1% pay an average of 26.8% in taxes. Top 10% are paying 21.9%. Top 50% = 17.85% and bottom 50% are paying 3.73%.

This data drastically contrasts the above gif.

Did you guys know that in 2018 (USA) the top earning 10% of households paid 69.47% of all income tax collected??

For example: based off of this gif, which income group (x axis) is paying the most money to the government in 2018?

I suspect that the takeaway was meant to show that lower income household taxes have risen slightly while top earners taxes have fallen significantly in the last 70 years. The problem is that there are many different ways to calculate a tax%.

So students should be allowed to park wherever they want? I'm confused on a presumed change.

Even if this is accurate, Total tax rate (federal,state, and local) can mean a lot of things. This gif is interesting but hardly conclusive enough to be useful.
