I saw the entire convo and I feel like I am in between somehow.
I don't might people getting wealth or being smart with their money, but I also think we should pay the lowest paid workers in the economy more, so they can thrive instead of just surviving x)
- I don't get CEO's who gets millions in bonuses, the better use would be to give it to the working man x)
This book lays out what we are up against here.
The very design of crapitalism is inherently flawed.
Poverty and war are design features of crapitalism.
The rich get richer, the poor get dead.
IF you read the book, and see something that doesn't look right, tell me about, eh?
This book retains crapitalism, but offers a better split of the profits.
But, fat chance of getting people away from their cat videos and bum fights long enough to improve their condition.
Joe Biden is doing a good enough job, I guess.
The people that got rich through their own efforts will do even better under what Bellamy proposes while those that don't excel won't be on the corner flying an 'Every little bit helps.' sign for tips.
It is possible to manage the world to the benefit of the people, not just the few, but only if the people make the few get to doing it.
Why? So our children will get bombed to. Cause that's exactly what they'll start doing. I actually think they are trying to egg people on to a civil disturbance or war so they can do exactly that while also having an excuse to confiscate people's guns.
Yes, I agree.
Those that stay in power by murdering people will continue to use every resource at their disposal.
It will be up to us to convince their hired thugs to switch alliances.
Or, we can keep going the way we are going and 7.5 billion of us will be killed and the remainder live as slaves.
Up to us.
We can't be free alone.
Those are old books xD
And its late here on the way to bed ^^
Might be interesting in listening/reading them.
Whats your thoughts on Solarpunk?
I'm all for utopias that don't require armed thugs to persist.
Yes, old books printed before the nwo/illuminati/masons/jews/whatever got control of the presses, and subsequently, radio and tv.
Most things printed/broadcast after Propoganda and Engineering of Consent are suspected of not being what they claim to be.
The lies run deep and wide.
