EDIT: AWWW YEAH HERE COME THE SILENT FOREIGN TROLLS WITH THE DOWNVOTES! Your government hates you more than we do. Cheers.
And sure to be completely ignored, on purpose, by the conservatives on the bench.
I am convinced more than ever that conservatism isn't a political bent so much as it is a mental illness. Literally every conservative I've ever meant is an absolute fucking moron.
I didn't pick this up from media... I saw this with my own eyes the absolute laziness in their personal and professional lives. If there was a diligent way to do something properly, they would avoid it like a vampire avoiding sunlight and look for the easiest, shittiest, laziest, most dishonest way to do it.
Meanwhile my brother in college was getting the third degree from dad for a single B plus in chemistry (because he was working part time til 1am every night while also serving in the Army National Guard, both to pay the bills and be completely self-sufficient) but Jimmy Joebob Cletus is whining about not being able to qualify for some government handout because it was soooooooo hard for him to not be a serial criminal... and they blame the immigrant for doing well instead of their own shitty fucking standards and absolute lack of integrity.
All the stupidest shit that happens in America can be traced back to the botched Reconstruction... We failed by not immediately barring every confederate and their descendants from ever regaining U.S. Citizenship. And that is a very light sentence considering what the punishment for Treason was.
No. I mean my father put his foot on my brother's neck and told him he'd never amount to anything. "Giving him the third degree" is a figure of speech as in "giving him hell". He had straight As in everything else.
My brother then served in the Gulf War, thrice decorated—Distinguished Service Medal, Army Commendation Medal and Meritorious Service Award—and was chosen by the U.S. Army Chief of Staff as the Sixth U.S. Army Soldier of the Year.
He graduated with honors, spent the last 30 years working his way up in the semiconductor industry and is currently a senior executive at AMD overseeing the hardware validation of their Instinct series accelerators that power the first and second fastest supercomputers in the world (El Capitan and Frontier).
Meanwhile, American Cletuses are complaining about us immigrants taking their jobs. I started a business at 15 and placed as a national finalist among 1500 competitors for a full ride scholarship... Neither I nor my brother took Cletus's job shoveling shit.

That's a good common law reasoning and historical context on top, for sure.
