Well welcome to America dude. Your minimum wage is about 7/8 dollars an hour and your apartment costs 2000 a month. You’ll be expected to work 40 hours a week to qualify for any assistance but also if you make too much you can’t have any help. Also your health insurance costs 500 dollars per month also you need to pay for utilities . Oh wait you need a car! American cities aren’t walkable. Car note is about 600 a month but what about insurance? That will be about 125 a month . Can’t afford food? Too bad you make too much money so we won’t put you in food stamps. And don’t even think about getting sick. If you take one day off from your fast food job someone else will replace you on the schedule and that’s if you mange to work 40 hours a week! Tax season! “So hey even though we’ve been taking taxes out of your check every week you still owe us about 300 dollars” sound fun? And don’t even think about college , it’s 30 grand per semester!I still prefer capitalism to socialism.
Why do you like socialism, its NEVER truly worked anywhere! It only works till the government runs out of other peoples money to spend!
🤷A lot? How many percent? I'd like proven statistics not your personal opinion.
Whats the point of spouting shite then?
If your whole perception and perspective on black people come from the media, how am I to persuade you otherwise? Have you not made your own reservations already?A lot? How many percent? I'd like proven statistics not your personal opinion.
I'd be ok, as a skilled tradesman I earn about $102,000 a year.Well welcome to America dude. Your minimum wage is about 7/8 dollars an hour and your apartment costs 2000 a month.

Not really I take people as I find them, met loads of decent hard working blacks in Scotland, I'd do the same in America tbh. Although if social media is anything to judge by, the amount of decent minded blacks are a tiny minority.If your whole perception and perspective on black people come from the media, how am I to persuade you otherwise?

What are your transferable skills . Also you’ll be heavily taxed (about 35 percent) because of the presidents new tax plan. A hundred grand is nothing in this country anymore. You better have a significant other or a roommate to supplement that income unless you wanna live in some southern state where the poverty level is extremely highI

Will that stop me from getting Covid ?Drink bleach
Well, I’m in school to be an occupational therapist so idk if there’s much labor intense work involved there but I worked hard in undergraduate I guess. Mainly want to help disabled kids and the additional is that people will think I’m a good person, that always helpsNot really I take people as I find them, met loads of decent hard working blacks in Scotland, I'd do the same in America tbh.

You from New York?What are your transferable skills . Also you’ll be heavily taxed (about 35 percent) because of the presidents new tax plan. A hundred grand is nothing in this country anymore.

Not from NYC , the closest I will reveal is that I’m from a town called Fairport. Pretty wealthy area. Town has a supervisor not a mayor. Different setup for towns vs cities. Also New York has really inexpensive colleges compared to basically anywhere else in the country. I think California also has a strong college system too. I didn’t vote for the mayor , I’ve never lived in NYC so idk how his policies are affecting the city other than from the news. NYC is 5 hours from where I live and 4 hours from my college. My education was only 30 grand including fall and spring semester due to my college being a state school and therefore a public school. I’d never pay 100,000 for a college education, especially in America lol. Anyone paying that and not going to an Ivy League is stupidYou from New York?
House your "socialist" mayor working out?
How about the shows of domination by the islamists praying in your streets? And you've the temerity to say that the islamification of the US wont happen, you're obviously a "USFUL IDIOT"
If $100k isn't much why are you studying so hard to be an occupational therapist?! Unless you're working for a sports team you can only dream of making that.
that's the White side of you talkingYou do realize I’m black right ? Although I will say I think I’m a little above hood rats in the sense that I’m actually getting an education and bettering myself.
Well I was raised in what was considered to be a “white neighborhood “that's the White side of you talking

And I’m not planning on living by myself anytime soon. Plan is to save at home until I have enough to put a down payment on a house. The difference is I don’t pay rent at home so whatever money I make can go directly to savings. And how would you know abt the job market in the United States and specifically New York? Have you researched? Have you even been to the states before ?Obv

What disabled kids are getting injured in their occupations? Were they disabled before or after needing your therapy?Well, I’m in school to be an occupational therapist so idk if there’s much labor intense work involved there but I worked hard in undergraduate I guess.

What? That’s just the name . It’s similar to physical therapist. Some people are born disabled, others by accident or illness.What disabled kids are getting injured in their occupations? Were they disabled before or after needing your therapy?
