Go fucking take it back. by Force. Get up, leave the house, protest in the streets, burn down their property until they give in. They do not feel sorry for you, and they will not give up their wealth willingly. It must be taken. Posting on the internet is useless for the cause, you have to Actively Do Something.
Look at Telluride CO. right now. The ski patrol is on strike fighting for a living wage, so the resort is closed. So every business in town also has no customers. The average rent for a one bedroom is $3330.00. How can someone afford that at $21 an hour.
just remember that if you eat a billionaire the estate just moves to a new holder creating a new billionaire. you have to create an estate tax for excessive estates like the billionaires so that as they are eaten their estates can be used to improve the common lot.
Let's reverse that, then go further. What would happen to the economy if $100 trillion was taken from the wealthiest 1% and distributed to the poorest 90%? In one year.
well i was maken 6 a hour bagging groceries for win-dixie at 17 tru 24 in the 80s and got tips each order i took out so i would say tips bringing in around 20 a night x 6 days a week and i made it .so im sure u guys can make it also .o during the summer i also helped a farmer trow bails of hay he gave me 10cents a bail to load 10 cents to unload 2000 bails. he came around 4 sats for 2 months took about 6 hours a day . also i was liven on my own at 18 moved out never looked back,
You know... the worst part of that: We can act like he didn't receive millions in his life and act like he didn't inherit hundreds of millions in assets and inheritance.
But, he "borrowed" a million dollars to invest in in construction jobs that his daddy was already doing
This is like having your daddy buy you some venison and then turning to hunters and going "see? Im such a good hunter"
The 50s with 1 income paying for a house, kids etc were a direct result of the Square Deal and New Deal policies, plus everywhere else be decimated from WWIi.
Republicans are aiming for the 1800-1900. The wonderful days of robber barons. Where the rich we fabulously wealthy and powerful. And the working poor made up most of the population
Every day Alex Jones gets a little closer to sounding almost like a sane person, and that scares me. Cause hes not but being a sane person in this insane system might not be possible at this point.
Oklahoma is one of the states with a state minimum wage below the federal minimum wage. The federal minimum wage, last changed in 2009, is $7.25/hr. Oklahoma's state minimum wage is $2.00/hr.
Employers being allowed to pay workers only $2 per hour in 2025 is a sign of a completely failed system. Even if you worked 10 hours per day literally every single day, you wouldn't even be able to afford to split the rent for a 1 bedroom apartment with a roommate. If you worked the regular 40 hours per week your annual salary would be around $4000. That's insane.
I know this doesnt discriminate between rich people and poor people. From people who cause the problems and the people that suffer those problems. So just be careful with it.
During the French Revolution, the youngest confirmed individuals to be executed by guillotine were René Bertaud, aged 13, and Louis Jacques Guillocheau, aged 13, who were guillotined in Nantes on December 17, 1793. Other teenagers, Julien Peigné and René Charon, both aged 14 at the time, were executed on the same day. You also have the children executed via other means. Once you start feeding the mob, it starts feeding on you and everyone else.
What about their families? I'm just getting you to think of the logistics of what your actually saying. This isnt like removing a tumor, you cant *cut* this out. and be done. Its in the blood. The country has leukemia. The cancer cells you remove will just be replaced by more cancer cells because thats what the system produces.
It's so weird being raised to think that capitalism is the best, and when you get older, you realize it sucks because not only does it mean a very small # of people get everything while the rest starve, but you also learn about the # of times it resorts to violence just to keep operating. No one in socialist countries starves. Finland has ended homelessness. And here we are in the USA, richest country in the world, and people are starving & dying from measles.
Let's not pretend Scandinavia is completely socialist. They're capitalist nations with strong guardrails and protections and some socialist policies meant to benefit the people, not the government. Capitalism is how we've gotten so far in the last 200 years. *Poorly regulated* capitalism is what's crushing us poors. The best economy model to live in actually is more capitalist than socialist, but you need balance between the two.
Capitalism only works well when there is adequate competition and capitalism will never regulate itself to create that competition on its own. There is zero motivation for that to occur so it has to be forced and maintained. As soon as you get effective monopolies then it's game over.
Except their solution of giving even more power to the government, to solve these social problems usually ends up making everything worse. Thats why California can spent 24Billion on homeless programs but it got worse. They could have just subsidized building low income housing and it would have helped alot more people, for less tax money.
You're confusing leftists with neoliberals. California is "left" by American Overton Window standards. They aren't actually leftists though. They are very much right wing neoliberals who still serve the interests of capitalism.
Poor example, almost a Straw Man. The reason you get spending like that instead of more common-sense affordable housing construction is the same cultural phenomenon and general policy attitude ("Fuck the poor... but make sure it LOOKS like you care") pushed endlessly by legions of well-paid lobbyists.
In other words, it's not ineffective because all government action must be inefficient or ineffective; it's ineffective because it's PERFORMATIVE... and that's the only thing Oligarchs accept...
Lol "yeah, this is bad, but imagine if it got worse? so we shouldnt do anything" was basically his response. I swear they pay numbnuts peanuts to write this dumb shit. Because if theyre stupid for free... well...
The amount of right wing/center right people that cannot fathom the concept that a signifcant amount to the left is by the rest of the world especially europe still fairly concervative is such a difficult concept for them to grasp.
Your right, I'm just saying that if the problem is greedy corporate assholes, the solution isnt giving more power to the politicians who are bribed directly through lobbyists to do whats best for the CEO's, not you or me.
Actually, it is. You just need politicians who aren't owned by the One Percent. Government authority - and, explicitly, the Monopoly on Legal Use of Force - is the only thing that prevents aristocracy from forming like this. As long as you can keep your government an actual Democracy, of course.
