If you can hear me in your fever dream, please wake up

Median income doesn't mean shit when median wealth is barely keeping up with the low end of developed countries. Median US wealth is closer to Estonia or Kuwait than Canada or the UK.

"Stupid shit people make up online". My brother in christ your own source shows less than 25% gun ownership. That lines up exactly with what I'm saying. What are you smoking?

Is 87 million armed citizens not the largest population is armed people on earth? Cause that's what I said. Why don't you try disagreeing with what I said instead of your own imagination?

It's cute that you think your Yahoo finance article is doing to convince anyone that average are poor when literally every other source refutes it.

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
