Welfare for Me, Bootstraps for Thee
Update: 2025-06-27
Description
Missouri’s out here rallying for democracy with the No Kings crowds while juggling youth violence, a loneliness epidemic, and more guns per capita than good decisions. The state takes in more federal money than it gives—making it a welfare queen in camo. Local crime rates rival big cities, yet politicians keep blaming "urban decay" from the safety of their subsidized offices. Meanwhile, marginalized groups are getting louder, the political right is eating itself alive, and even the skeptics are dusting off their protest signs. Turns out, hope (and sarcasm) might just be Missouri’s next big export.
