Justice for the rich

You’re not free in the United States. Don’t get me wrong, though. You have more freedom than elsewhere. As a U.S. citizen, you’re most likely not going to have an agent of the federal government following you across multiple nations with a radioactive weapon to kill you, but that doesn’t automatically mean you should be celebrating. And of course that only holds true if you’re a U.S. citizen. As the last eight years have repeatedly proven, non-citizens may not have the same guarantee.
