      How do you think we ended up with a weekend, overtime and the right for woman to vote?

      The greatest generation striked, fought and died against the capitalist billionaire oligarchs and monarchs to get it.

        You’re assuming everyone here is American to the point of using an acronym like FDR. I know who you’re talking about but still

        edit: the person who you’re responding to is Australian based on their instance and I’m Canadian

          Valid point, thank you.

          With many things, most of the western world tends to track the trends that the US is doing. (Something I hope Trump cures people from)

          I am South African myself, so I should be clear in my language.
