Rich people are only rich because poor people aren't willing to kill themselves in large numbers.
The best thing any individual can do to reduce inequality is to only contribute to institutions that do not exacerbate inequality.
Is the median wage at your company less than the wage required to buy the cheapest home within a 2 hour commute of your office? You're likely exacerbating inequality every single day.
Are one or more people at the top of your company working on buying their next Ferrari or second/third home? You'renliklwy exacerbating inequality every day.
If poor people were more willing to die than to contribute to the same companies and people that fuck them over and the middle class was more willing to work for themselves instead of contributing to greedy corporations all for a mediocre home, then we would have much more equal power structures in this country.
Every single person in this country is responsible for the way it is. Being at the bottom isn't an excuse to fall in line and do exactly what your masters tell you everyday.
