Hello everyone! I recently pivoted from working in advertising to working at an early-stage fintech startup. I'm looking to speak with business finance leaders who manage corporate cash and credit lines for their companies to learn more about your tools and your approach to cash management. I'll buy you lunch/coffee for your time.
If interested shoot me an email me at kathryn@crescent.app! And thank you!!

The high and mighty attitude that is pervading this thread is precisely why Trump won and really shows you all haven't learned anything. If all of you are so much smarter than them, why haven't you figured out how to improve income inequality / raise real wages for the average American, or stimulate the economic growth required to find them all jobs?
OP that is outrageous. Why don't we just force sterilize everyone from rural America without a college degree and a Democratic voter registration. Yep I'm sure the country will be a better place. Totes
Well, "no one gives a shit about them," is kinda the attitude that made them elect an unstable strongman
You fear what you don't know. Unfortunately they don't know a whole lot.
@A1 that's how everyone is acting on this thread, people need to humble themselves a bit rather than simply berating and belittling people who may have less education, less privilege, less wealth handed down, less paying jobs, or different value systems than their own. As a moderate, this thread is shameful and completely illustrative of why we're in this goddamn mess
Way to generalize an entire group of people based on what is most likely a limited understanding or knowledge of who these people are. How about we setup stops on the interstate and prevent them from coming to the east/west coasts...we can call it a travel ban...the hypocrisy of this thread is insane
Now your last sentence is messed up, OP
That's what happens when you have no education and less than stellar genes.
They're also not great with numbers or critical thinking for that matter
No bCG1- the reason why they are unemployed because they are lazy and refuse to work hard! And that's when the immigrants come in to take their jobs! It's survival for the fittest! American should know it cause they invented it! Don't give me that excuse that they don't have jobs! If I can come to this country with nothing and be whee I am, they can too! I worked hard and paved my way; they didn't! I have zero sympathy for that!
I have. It's called education and the republicans won't invest in it because we need to build a wall
At BCG1, I used to care. I was actually a strong states rights moderate to liberal, still am. This is offensive though. Been trying too long to fix something unfixable. Now I'm just for splitting the country or making them irrelevant (i.e. accelerating their inevitable decline)
@AC 5, you might want to check the unemployment rates/number of people on welfare across all states before you go throwing that bit of knowledge around...you fool
Because they are the ones that make up the military and have to go police the world when something bad happens in the US. It's not liberal NY socialites that join the Marines.
Fear of the unknown maybe? Similar to how I (a native Californian) am afraid of driving in the snow whereas a midwesterner may not blink twice.
I think we're in this mess because moderates have been a bunch of pussies the past few decades. Always deferential, trying to please everyone. Not possible. Have to do the best you can. May be a generalization, but again nothing is perfect. Works pretty well.
The argument people are trying to make here is that people from the Midwest are inferior. You then suggest that they are inferior because they are lazy, which is leading to them not having jobs. However unemployment is actually worse on most coastal states, which would suggest there are more lazy people on the coasts suggesting that there are even more inferior people on the coasts then in the mid west which completely flips the argument you are trying to support up side down
Underprivileged and undereducated. Same as rural whites but more of them and moreso due to historical/societal issues. Rural whites have far fewer things holding them back than undocumented immigrants or poorer blacks in inner cities.
We're not one country that is fallacy. Rural and southern areas have been saying that for decades, time to listen and let them do what they want. They will inevitably destroy themselves. They've been afforded every opportunity the world has to offer and yet would be no better than Afghanistan without urban and northern areas moderating them.
BCG1: As we just passed Holocaust Remembrance Day, tell the Jews that the US being the world police is not good for them!
Also, the current Palestinian crisis was caused by the British and you better believe that without the US acting as world police there would have been multiple more Arab Israeli wars, or just the complete massacre of all Jews in Israel by the Arabs...
