This is a rhetorical question. Of course we are. Time to start an underground railroad I suppose.

It's crazy seeing you guys finally clock on to this from over here in Europe. We've been trying to tell you for well over a decade!

It's been obvious since the 2008 election that we never actually improved. People just sort of hid it for a while, but it was always there and it's all out in the open now. We're the shithole country.

Nobody was ever punished for 2008, in fact they were instead rewarded with ever-increasing protections. That and decades of defunding/redlining education and this is the result.

One person was punished for 2008. A whistle blower.
