My old man use to tell me to wish in one hand and shit in the other and see what feels up first. Every time I asked for anything this is the response I got. So my kid probably heard it a few times growing up to.

“The amount of money one owns ultimately decides the victor. This doesn’t stop within the walls of a casino, or it’s cash flow. It’s a rule that forms the basis for a capitalist society!”

Here's another. From an anime "Kakegurui"

Or any society, for that matter. And it's not always money; it can be possessions, prestige and/or power, too. Influence, duress. The Haves and the Have-Nots. That concept exists and has existed in all societies, from capitalist to socialist...and all others in-between and around. Just a personal thought, no malice intended. #Food4Thought

I guess then money could be used as the example of really anything that divides the haves and the have nots. But I guess we live in an era now where these economic inequalities are becoming more and more glaring. So I thought specifically talking about money here was applicable. Of course there's always been the haves and the have nots. But now... We're looking at it on a different scale

Another personal take here: in my POV, money comes, money goes. I just try to regulate the outflow. But the biggest dividend I get is that, unlike so many Haves, I can rest my head and fall right asleep with a clear conscience. Not many Haves can brag that. 🥳

Debatable in it's origin, but told to me as being by Mao Tse Tung:
"Plenty more where they came from 😉"

Another dubious glory is by Hermann Goering:
"A half measure is no measure."

But, both also said, "Mummy! Mummy! I need a wee-wee, mummy! Mummy!"

Americans will expand their imagination, developing a new constitution respecting human rights and protecting their right to vote. On August 6, 2021, the 56th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act, a coalition of faith leaders, state legislators, HBCU (historically black college or university) students, activists, and allies went marching, gathering at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial and marching to the Reagan National Airport with a message to the nation to end the filibuster and pass legislation protecting voting rights, D.C. statehood, and reparations. They chanted, "no rights, no flights," as they shut down the airport with righteous indignation to highlight their fierce urgency. Twenty-six of them were arrested for sitting in the street, an act of civil disobedience, in the tradition of Representative John Lewis and many others who believed in the power of nonviolence to transform America morally and spiritually. This modern assault on voting rights began with the Supreme Court decision, Shelby v. Holder (2013), weakening the Voting Rights Act of 1965 by removing the preclearance clause in section 4b. This provision protected the voters in the states with a history of voter suppression by requiring the Department of Justice to approve any changes to the voting laws. With the preclearance removal, the states readily enacted laws to suppress the voter through strict voter ID requirements, purging the voters from the rolls, moving the polling places, reducing the early voting days, and forcing the voters to stand in offensively long lines. Further, the voter suppression laws have impacted every election since this decision. In 2016, the voter ID laws in Wisconsin disenfranchised 300,000 voters while Secretary Hillary Clinton only lost the state by 27,000 votes to Donald Trump. In 2018, Georgia purged 107,000 voters from the rolls and cost Stacey Abrams the gubernatorial election. However, in 2020, the Black faith and civic groups responded to the voter suppression amidst the dual pandemics of COVID-19 and "COVID-1619," (the curriculum When Racism began in America grades 6-12) considering the death of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, with increased voter engagement. As a result, there was overwhelming Black voter turnout in key states, like Georgia, where the margin was roughly 11,000 votes determining the presidential election.

A lot of truth in that.

That's kinda like a happy customer tells 1 person a unhappy customer tells 13. I was told that years ago based off of a survey.
