They're useful for funneling as much money as possible to as few people as possible.

For example, the suckers in this thread are useful to the executives and investors of Doordash.

I agree.

Why is the economy struggling while rich people live in luxury?

I'd say what's causing people grief is a bigger trigger for fascism than how they react to it.

Mismanagement and misplaced grievances.

The former is the cause for 99% of the problems societies face.

Essentially, conmen will con useful idiots, and then the useful idiots will get mad at their peers instead of their rulers because it's easier.

Stupidity is also a major factor, because useful idiots aren't capable of understanding how they're being taken for a ride.

People are meaner on the East Coast, but they're also more capable.

All the people in here eager to defend how someone wastes their money just reinforces my opinion of the average person these days; most of them are useful idiots.

Like a bird, you needed to be pushed out of your nest to see that you can fly.

It's a shame that you had so much excess wealth that you could have servants making and delivering food while you laze around in bed all day.

If you didn't have that excess wealth to fall back on, then you'd be forced to participate in society like everyone else and see that the problems you thought were really just in your head.

News flash, buddy, the vast majority of people with depression still have to get up and go to work.

I hope you never complain that you need more money if that's how you waste it.

The people using doordash are the same ones complaining they need more money.

Just another reason for me to think the average person is a complete idiot.

He doesn't have to follow orders from you.

The average person is an idiot.
