Americans probably should start caring when their government kills people. If it isn't your responsibility, then who's responsibility is it going to be???? The iranians school girls? Gazan babies?

And cry me a river, as if the iranians (among so many others that had/have to endure American sanctions) haven't been experiencing significantly worse economic conditions for the last 50 years. All of a sudden, we need to show compassion towards Americans because they may not be able to "make ends meet" or have to cancel their subscriptions; when Americans themselves can't be bothered to even pretend to care about the people their country bombs.

Get over yourselves and be more responsible, no one on the planet cares you people are "struggling". We all are, and we still do our diligence to make sure our countries at least aren't bombing elementary schools and funding genocides.
