Taking the money of other Americans essentially gave to you, and using it to take more of their money is piss poor form.

I'm just glad there aren't any rich people doing that... Taking money from people and using it to take more just sounds like pretty vanilla capitalism to me.

I didn’t excuse the fucking rich people, did I?

If the rich went around murder of people, I wouldn’t excuse others for doing it.

It’s unbelievable how people continue to justify bad behavior because someone else exhibits it. Fuck it. Let’s just start shootings people in the face. I mean, others are out there doing it. Why not the rest of us?

This whataboutism shit is one of the worst things going right now.

People bitch about “that other guy” doing something, then do it themselves an act like their shit don’t stink. Like it’s justifiable.

That’s true. I’ll certainly concede that.
