I think the guys point is that you can spend the money and end up with the same thing.

I agree. I just hate the “both sides” thing when one is clearly and demonstrably worse than the other overall. But yeah, I agree with him that 100B on a train that doesn’t exist is some seriously corrupt bullshit.

Both sides are bad, one is worse than the other.

No one has to be a hero here.

I love how I’m getting downvoted just for pointing out the truth though.

Yeahhh the propaganda programming has only become more and more effective at convincing people to vote against their own interests. Been a problem for a long time, but these algorithms work on all of us, even when we are aware of their effect, it still affects us subconsciously.

Those who think they are impervious are generally the most pliable.
