The U.S. is in the waiting room for a serious house cleaning. As it is, literally everything revolves around some big companies profit margins. If it doesn't benefit that, it's not important.

God I hope we fuck em up soon. They subverted the justice system, and now there's no pressure release for when bad things happen.

And without pirate radio we wouldn't have the "People Just Do Nothing" mockumentary series!
