pearlguitar-88

I don't live in the us but god help you man

sharpdolphin-67 OP

is the economy good in ur country or is it the same with us as well?

sharpdolphin-67 OP

and then donald rump made the economy worse overtime

pearlguitar-88

Nuh our economy is fantastic our gov takes care of us free health care if your father died on duty they give you a monthly salary if your a student who needs money they give it to you if your traveling and had problem with it they pay for the whole flight and probably give you a first class flight and if your homeless they give you a home and a monthly salary and it's illegal to be homeless

sharpdolphin-67 OP

hmmmm what country are u in again?

sharpdolphin-67 OP

yall are lucky bro

sharpdolphin-67 OP

idk whos ur PM but theyre for sure better than the president in the USA

pearlguitar-88

Saudi Arabia

pearlguitar-88

Saudi Arabia

sharpdolphin-67 OP

ah gotcha

pearlguitar-88

Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and his son Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud

sharpdolphin-67 OP

if i recall is dubai yalls country or someone else's bc dubai looks luxurious of a place to be in

pearlguitar-88

Not really oil rn is strong for today but not the future that's why Saudi Arabia is trying to get away from using oil as a economic resource as far as possible bc it's the money of today not the future

sharpdolphin-67 OP

yeah bruh like USA we be getting laughed at all the time whenever Rump is in office and stuff and we still dont even have UBI implemented here which would help a lot even if people are unemployed and stuff

pearlguitar-88

Idk anything about Dubai tbh but yah there wealthy

pearlguitar-88

Np

pearlguitar-88

I think it's the gov responsibility to give it's citizens a free health care system and better life in general and not pumping all there money to there military

pearlguitar-88

In Saudi Arabia we don't pay taxes

pearlguitar-88

Maybe lol

sharpdolphin-67 OP

they have social security benefits and other stuff if i recall and 401k which i mean its eh

sharpdolphin-67 OP

We still dont have a free health care system here yet haha

pearlguitar-88

Oh i thought she was talking about snap chat

sharpdolphin-67 OP

lots of the money ive been seeing is usually being funded to military most of the time and now to ICE

sharpdolphin-67 OP

which is beyond crazy

pearlguitar-88

Idt a gov should force it's citizens to pay anything for stuff they should have for free and the military they could pay for it themselves it's there responsibility not the citizens

sharpdolphin-67 OP

we get taxed a lot which we dont get a decent amount of disposable income for bills to pay and other stuff

pearlguitar-88

And let's not forget the crazy prices

sharpdolphin-67 OP

and then tariffs hit like a truck which food started going up here which made the market worse here

sharpdolphin-67 OP

honestly man like wars are so pointless its just causing more harm and suffering to other countries like why even repeat history time after time like people be strugging in the streets man

sharpdolphin-67 OP

mhmm like i mentioned ive been wanting UBI for so long now its like its another paycheck on top of the paycheck we make here so 2-3k a month at work plus another 1k isnt too shabby

pearlguitar-88

That's the only responsibility they have for the country and if the country was actually good you would see the citizens rushing to protect there country bc most who enter the military in the us they don't do it bc they want to protect there country most do it for money

pearlguitar-88

True

sharpdolphin-67 OP

i feel most politics never even cared much about their people but rather actually just carrying about the money on their pockets realizing the money theyre earning is a lot a lot and never even considered using it for the people

pearlguitar-88

The most important tool any country has is there citizens

pearlguitar-88

In Saudi Arabia we have kings not leaders it's a pretty big difference

sharpdolphin-67 OP

Idk man like i feel like no matter whos the boss in every other country they seem to want to have more power over other countries im like bro isnt enough enough man

sharpdolphin-67 OP

yeah the worse people electing the worse type of people running in office

sharpdolphin-67 OP

yeah were for sure always being used all the time

pearlguitar-88

A king doesn't have authority over he's ppl's money meaning most of the royal family have there money of legit businesses they made there own

sharpdolphin-67 OP

dang yall are a good country im convinced this is true for sure

snowyorange-96

Well i mean you are right about things being expensive

snowyorange-96

Even if its a joke

snowyorange-96

Like cars cost

pearlguitar-88

When our founder King Abdulaziz Al Saud re united Saudi Arabia he wanted to make it a kingdom bc a kingdom cares about its citizens

snowyorange-96

Oil

snowyorange-96

snowyorange-96

Alot stuff

snowyorange-96

In gas

snowyorange-96

I haven't checked more news

sharpdolphin-67 OP

I think AI is also another problem thats also making econony worser too in a way like what i mentioned like PC building is getting super expensive for instance

pearlguitar-88

I hate ai i only use it if i want some information real quick without digging in google

snowyorange-96

Well it is seen as good and bad depends on how much it is used, I think the only thing it would be good at is like about helping people understand eachother better and like prob help with some basic stuff , then other things aint needed unless the bot spoke truth

sharpdolphin-67 OP

i think just AI in general is ruining social skills, increasing unemployment rates, like idk what else to list in particular but its done a lot of bad stuff from what im seeing

snowyorange-96

Yes it is doing much damage but like its also good some terms for like lets say if someone is not good in english and struggle then it would correct it

snowyorange-96

Thats what i like about it

snowyorange-96

Other i hate

sharpdolphin-67 OP

keep grinding until we die early and retire 401k with SS Benefits at old age heck no i dont want my life to end like that hahaha Which i hope i dont go that route

sharpdolphin-67 OP

Canada isnt bad ive been there i remember when people voted from Rump in 2016 lots of celebrities wanted to move to Canada ifykyk

sharpdolphin-67 OP

sharpdolphin-67 OP

sharpdolphin-67 OP

sharpdolphin-67 OP

sharpdolphin-67 OP

sharpdolphin-67 OP

sharpdolphin-67 OP

America dont even got free health care yet not even universal health care

sharpdolphin-67 OP

even studios are starting to become expensive here as well

sharpdolphin-67 OP

im just glad that i got a new pc and a car ill be happy with both

sharpdolphin-67 OP

also AI is taking many Jobs as well

sharpdolphin-67 OP

those will most likely be gone bc of AI

sharpdolphin-67 OP

if u find a union work they help out tremendously

sharpdolphin-67 OP

which honestly its something im looking for atm but theyre hard to get accepeted

sharpdolphin-67 OP

not even hiring their own citizens huh

sharpdolphin-67 OP

thats very strange

sharpdolphin-67 OP

it really isnt

sharpdolphin-67 OP

its mostly rather first come first serve who ever takes the job position even if their resume isnt the greatest at all compare to myself or others

sharpdolphin-67 OP

its a hit or miss

sharpdolphin-67 OP

even people with degrees they got the degrees yet couldnt fill in the job they wanted to work at bc everybody is also wanting to work that position too its like a race

sharpdolphin-67 OP

yeah the real world can be a dirty business after all

sharpdolphin-67 OP

although casino work was fun while it lasted for me haha

sharpdolphin-67 OP

tbh if know what no man sky is i rather find a new planet and just live there and establish a new colony with better democracy

sharpdolphin-67 OP

im a bit concerned about climate change in the future because lots of people dont seem to pay attention over that

sharpdolphin-67 OP

idkkkkk anything can happen in a matter of space and time

ivoryjewel-66

I thought Americans are rich in money

sharpdolphin-67 OP

rich people specifically in general

sharpdolphin-67 OP

along with influencers and entreprenurs

ivoryjewel-66

I mean that Middle Class in America has sufficient money & basic needs to live?

sharpdolphin-67 OP

yeah but sometimes they can also be broke too

sharpdolphin-67 OP

which ive been noticing lately they need roommates to help the housing out a bit which ive been seeing everywhere a lot recently

sharpdolphin-67 OP

like middle class is slowing going to die off if the economy gets worser overtime

sharpdolphin-67 OP

Ice age 😭😭😭😭
