both sides dont talk about big issues like income inequality:committee on government weaponization necessary? What's the Point of Black History Month?

[basquebromance]

i intend this thread to bea progressive takedown of the uber-capitalist status quo that has enriched millionaires and billionaires at the expense of the working class, and a blueprint for what transformational change would actually look like. this will be a serious discussion about the REAL issues facing America: grotesque income inequality, climate change etc

unfettered capitalism is to blame for an unprecedented level of income and wealth inequality, is undermining our democracy, and is destroying our planet. How can we accept an economic order that allows three billionaires to control more wealth than the bottom half of our society? How can we accept a political system that allows the super rich to buy elections and politicians? How can we accept an energy system that rewards the fossil fuel corporations causing the climate crisis?

in the face of these overwhelming challenges, the American people must ask tough questions about the systems that have failed us and demand fundamental economic and political change. This is where the path forward begins.

WHAT black history? They were slaves, and now they do non-stop crimes. That's their history.


Not good enough.

We don’t need a study. We don’t need a government program. We don’t need politicians making up issues to get re-elected.
Suffer from low income? Get a skill set. Get an education. Further your education. Theres already government programs to take care of these things.
Most important of all, make better life decisions.

What income inequality? People are rich and people are poor. That is the way it has always been and always will be. It doesn't matter how much the Jones's have. The fact is, the standard of living raises up all the time so the poor are far better off than they were generations ago and will be better off in the future than they are now. Again, it doesn't matter what the Jones's have.
