For-profit medical care.
Piggybacking for-profit prisons.
Public transport too. It really seems like every time a public service is privatised it goes to shit, almost as if for-profit motives aren’t aligned to public interest.
For profit education
For-profit anything-necessary-for-survival
School lunch debt.
Tax exemption for religious organisations.
Could be worse, I guess. I live in a “secular” democracy that essentially collects members fees for the Catholic and Lutheran churches (and only those two!) via the federal income tax.
Knew it was DE before I saw the instance domain.

Well the waste of land part doesn’t really matter much cause if we ever did need that land for other things, it’s still there. It’s not as though building a golf course makes that patch of land into an irradiated wasteland that can never be used for anything else again.
Golf is equivalent to licking an entire countryside so nobody else can use it. The only activity in human history that used more space for less people were the Apollo moon landings.
Injustice. Heartlessness. Violence. “Utopia justifies any means” worldview. Schizophrenia, paranoia, and other mental disorders. Traumatising pain. Misunderstandings. Nazism. Racism. Sadism. Masochism. Bullying. People turning into monsters in moral sense. Politicians turning into monsters in moral sense (a subpart of the above, but I thought I should specify it). Treachery. Thievery. Murders. War. True evil. Sinfulness. Original Sin.

50,000 Square Foot Mansions. Such a waste.
A lot of these are things that we can improve
Here’s one we can’t: giraffes 🦒
an old meme:
Man I think the unbelievable part stays in the fact that that horse fucking flyies …
Pegasus != Unicorn
Also, Pegasus was just the name of that particular flying horse. Not the name of the species.
The original baby Yoda

But in reality, military aerial drones are much more terrifying. It sounds like a sci-fi dystopia that a billionaire could type your name, press a kill button, and within a few minutes a drone locates and bombs you. But this tech has already existed for over a decade, and is being used by the US in the Middle East and North Africa.
Not me! Wikipedia lists 14 people with my first and just name just in the category of American politicians.
