Why do Americans think the rich care?

You can choose your breakfast, as long as it's cheap non-elite food. You can't have a say in the chemicals used in your food to make more profit from you as you slowly die from cancer.

Rich people only care about money is just a fact of life and Trump is no different. In fact everybody involved in the political machine is rich and doesn't care about regular citizens. That includes Dems and Rep alike.

Money gets shit done. Medicine and technology wouldn't be so advanced without the rich, so watch who bash mate!

It wasn't the US as in the government had a hand. All they did was model it after the German war criminal inventor of the ballistic missile who was the real person behind the moon landing success no matter how many times the US rewrites history, as victors of war do.
