A retired Aurora police sergeant faces criminal charges for raping his daughter and continually sexually assaulting her and his two adopted daughters, but he remains free from custody while his ex-wife is in jail for objecting to court-ordered reunification therapy meant to repair his relationship with two of his sons.
The reason is because this fucked up shit doesn’t happen to the majority of people and the USA does actually offer a substantially better quality of life compared to many other places.
THAT SAID, yeah we have a lot of fucked up institutions in place that are authoritarian in nature (police) to uphold the status quo and ensure the money keeps making money.
Lol no. It “offers” the mirage of a better quality of life. That’s like saying that gambling is a job that will invariably improve your economic position. The chances of immigrants actually improving their life by moving to the U.S. aren’t that good. I mean, most of the countries that people move from at least have socialized healthcare.
this is just factually wrong.
The vast majority of working immigrants that come to america have family outside of america that they send money to. It not only improves their quality of life but their family’s as well.
We also have a fairly large temporary “guest” worker population in the agriculture field as well.
That currency conversion makes what they can spare a good amount of money for their family abroad does not mean that their quality of life has improved.
the QOL of their family certainly also has. A lot of these people also come from places that are war torn or experiencing significant political corruption, the US is not nearly as bad as those places either.
Even then, chances are they’re probably living in better conditions, for one reason or another. Healthcare, services, education.
Better quality of propaganda maybe, not life
