What happens when the masses get fed up with the inequality and 400+ million guns in the U.S.?
- alfredol 3y agoFascism, apparently.
- jay_kyburz 3y agoI see people joking about this all up and down this thread, but rich peoples wealth is not sting around in gold bars waiting to be stolen by poor people. All that will happen in a violent uprising is a lot of people will die, and peoples houses will burn down, but nothing will happen to those numbers in a spreadsheet.
- giardini 3y agowell, there will be a lot of inheritance and spreading of wealth (thru theft et al) as a result of that uprising!
- jay_kyburz 3y agoYou missed my point, a looter might get a new car or tv, but that's not wealth. A looter is can't take ownership of television network, or a social media website, or a coal mine, or a rail way, or like anything actually worth anything. Now instead of a violent uprising we talk about electing a democratic government that's prepared nationalize our nations infrastructure we'd be talking real wealth redistribution.
