Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This isn't just a danger due to physical concerns or growth stunting.
It wires these kids brains for a resource scarce life. Which makes them think short term only.
People always talk about why everyone's crashing out these days, this is why.
Is there a resource I can read more about this.
Sounds like me to a t
Here's a general article, but there's lots of academic studies available if you search:
https://www.psychologicalscience.org/observer/how-poverty-affects-the-brain-and-behavior
It doesn't just have to be when young, poverty fucks your brain up because for the vast majority of human evolution, if you were hungry or didn't have shelter, that was what you needed to focus on.
It's Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
If you don't know what that is, that's a good place to start. Then read up how the absence effects people.
Thank you. I'm going to take a few days to unwind before I take it all in but this looks like a solid overview. Its always better to be aware and conscious of this stuff.
Oh for sure, the wealthy know all about this.
Despite everything they try to distract us with, it's a class war and only one side has the energy after surviving to fight it.
The more normal people aware of it, the more progressives get elected, and the better our chances of living in a functional society again.
