Let's raise our wages to where they should be or at least back to 2005 levels by doing a go fund me and buy khalistan over in India or wherever they want khalistan to be and once we export 4 or 5 million India's our employers will have no choice but to pay over 19 an hour to be a doctor and our kids will have summer jobs again.

We non-crazy people have to adopt the autarky strategy to make ourselves independent of the crazy people. In Germany we say „separating the wheat from the chaff“.?
