That's because in modern-day America the people are the last priority. Displaying The American Dreamâ„¢ as something everyone can supposedly aspire to is much more important than ensuring its actual attainment.

Not everything in America is bad. Some stuff is pretty cool, actually... but there's a lot of room for improvement, and we seem to be heading in the opposite direction.

I personally would feel a lot less angry about taxes and whatnot if they went to infrastructural improvements like a stable, equitable system of freely accessible healthcare rather than toward back room deals and another drone factory.

TIL that the best thing at Little Caesar's can be attached to the second-best thing at Little Caesar's.

I am officially Homer Simpson drooling.

I'm stereo-blind too (amblyopia is the medical term for it), and I honestly had no idea until just a short wile ago. I thought I just sucked at sports and stuff, and that this was how people everywhere saw stuff. I'm 26, and all my doctors ever told me growing up was "Yeah, you've got strabismus and poor depth perception, but it's cool... just wear glasses".

I'm 25 now, and this IAMA, as sappy as it might sound, really gives me a sense of hope and relief. It looks like I might actually be able to fix this problem. OP, if you don't mind, how much was everything? I assume this can't be a cheap / inexpensive procedure, given America's customary price-gouging when it comes to other medical stuff. Also, what's involved? Like, is it surgical or...?

Honestly though, can you even put a price on this? I'll happily work hundred-hour weeks if it means being able to catch a ball and drive and see the "real world" for the first time in 25 years.

Seriously though, you guys, this is huge. OP, I'm really happy for you. Thanks for doing this!
