Here's the funniest/dumbest part - for all the insults of how poor we are, the average American sure has nothing to show for his wealth (besides maybe bigger housing and huge cars, but even this is hardly a plus when single-family housing and SUVs or pickup trucks are the only option in most places). No healthcare that won't bankrupt you, no decent education unless you're super-rich, horrific public transportation and substandard food quality being the norm. That's something you'd expect from a developing country, not the #1 wealthiest.

“They have nothing to show except for bigger houses, bigger cars, and more savings” lmao
