That is the sad reality: to fix the institutionalized inequalities we are going to have to tear everything down, because as time has shown attempting anything less drastic enables the superior manipulating communicators to take over the entire enterprise and make themselves kings.

- bsenftner 4y agoBernie Sanders and his team.
- groone 4y agoI don't see how you can tear everything down and get to a better place. Tearing everything down will leave you with nothing. Endless examples of "people's republics" where the power gets concentrated and people are left with none. The total wealth has expanded with capitalism. Large numbers of people lifted out of poverty. Yes, housing is a problem. But then fix the regulation that inhibits development of housing and makes it more expensive. And then go work in construction as houses don't build themselves. Wealth is to be created not to be redistributed until there is nothing left.
- paulryanrogers 4y agoThere is a spectrum of possible actions. Some things will need to be entirely replaced. Others maybe only 70, 40, 10%. And solidarity to effect the most painful changes. The current trend is reaching the breaking point.
- groone 4y agoHere are the latest numbers on inequality. Bottom 50% of people paid just 2.3 percent of federal income taxes. Is this something to be replaced?
