I legitimately thought there'd be no way for them to be able to campaign enough in just a few months and I'll gladly admit I was wrong. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] spujb@lemmy.cafe [S] 7 points 2 years ago sorry for the L, but i think we’re both glad you’re taking it :) permalink fedilink source parent [–] original2@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) From an external viewpoint, how the fuck can it cost so much to run one campaign. Even in the uk, we are legally capped at 19 million pounds. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) Because our country is ran by oligarchs.

At least your oligarchs have some empathy. Over here they'll kill you for $5. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] original2@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago Well they just refuse to invest. Take the examples you gave: We have healthcare, but there is a hospital in which obese patients cannot go on one of the floors because it will collapse. The police are well meaning but we cannot fit criminals in prison and have to release them early. permalink fedilink source parent
