People need money to live. The fact that we have many ways to just spend it, is incredible. But there are also ways we spend money that are excessive. It doesn't help that the money we have to work for isn't much. Most places of business end up underpaying their staff, so having the money to live off of is a pleasing to them. Yes there is the minimum wage, which is the minimum to pay employees to live off, but even than that's not enough for people to live off. But with prices continuously going up it makes living very difficult. Especially for working college students, with college tuition increases, and lack of help from the government to support us. "In recent internet history, politicians have set themselves up for ridicule by providing the perfect conditions for their memeification. More than just humorous interventions, these memes undermine the pretensions of power and respect politicians use as a de-facto method for quieting dissent and broadcasting their often contemptuous messages."
This uno meme is showing that no matter what the big companies, colleges, and the government are asked to do, they will only do it for a profit and will not care about the people they get money from. Memes show that people care about what the meme talks about even if they are used as a joke. "At their core, all memes, regardless of their politics, are a tool for expression." Regardless of their origin, format, message, or even relevance, memes have the power to stay forever and still have an influence. An example of a powerful meme is with the following link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iik25wqIuFo. I recommend that anyone reading this post to please click the link. This meme started in the early 2000's, around the time of the start of Youtube, but the meme comes from a video from the 80's. We still see this meme being relevant today by Youtubers and other forms of content creators. This meme has shown that memes can withstand the test of time and still have an impact. So the more memes are used, the more the overused memes will be just like that link and have an everlasting impact on society and politicians as a whole.
