  1. Just a reminder: Working class = Everyone who works for a living (including self-employed)

  2. Guys guys guys. We all work for a living self--employed or not. Hence it is fittingly called "earned income". The other guys live without working they live on your work. It is fittingly named "unearned income" because they didn't lift a finger for it. That's the real divide.

  3. Greed, Greed and more Greed. The more you have the less you are willing to share.

  4. Are you in a Trade Union? Normally it's their role.

  5. And Charity is only to calm the bad consciousness. It's not solving the problems it only fixes some of sympthoms.

  6. I'm watching American politics closely now for over 5 years. I'm appalled at the degree of corruption I've seen over the years. I've see Democrats fighting Democrats just because they are progressives. I've seen Democrats joining up with Republicans to fight Progressives. I've seen donors be put before country, before people, before the future because elections are based on a Pay-2-Win system via ads. I have serious doubts you can overcome the corruption from within. Please prove me wrong. I am considering the idea that a Trump presidency may be a harder but quicker way leading to a new America after Trump, a stronger America, a progressive America which looks to the future not the past, which puts people above profits. Please prove me wrong. Show me that a peaceful change is possible so we don't need Trump or someone like him because Trump is not the problem he is a symptom. And there will be others like him when things don't change peacefully. It is in the human nature to take any direction even a bad one when people getting desperate. Anything but lingering around in the status-quo in a country which is upside down and self-destructing itself over greed.

  7. Why did you endorse Biden and not run yourself?

  8. It's actually good for now, that Sanders is not President. Because Sanders would not be able to pass anything. The Democrats needs 62-66 seats in the Senate THAN Biden and Sanders can implement all without any hurdles, not even from the DINOs.

  9. I disagree. Americas Democracy is a Beta-Version and apparently flawed. It has been upgraded in other countries especially Germany who already fought the problems America now has as well. Please learn by example, learn from the mistakes others made and reform before it is too late and America reforms the hard way like Germany had.

  10. You see individualism as a threat? You prefer to be a drone?

  11. We don't really need capitalism just market economics to self-regulate supply and demand as long as there is a healthy competition. Capitalism is just a means to get investment-money there are other ways to do that.

  12. Covid and Lockdown also lead to people asking about the sense of their work now that they had time to think about it and some probably looking for something better and better paid. And some realized: What point is there to work, when you can barely live on it or need two jobs. For comparison: 50 years ago. One parent in a household had one job and paid not only the morgage and all the costs but could support his wife and kids with it and pay for their education. And the wife could even stay at home with kids without the family starving. What happend? Lookup: Income inequality
