+Jeff... you brought up a principle of equalism. and that principle is - why are all things most of us were taught as children, fair play, honesty, cooperation, kindness and sharing suddenly not applicable when we reach adulthood? why isn't our society based on the simple rules of ethics we were taught as kids? why isn't the "golden rule" applied to economics, politics, the workplace and the basis of our everyday lives and interactions? the reason is simple. the ruling elite don't like ethics. they interfere with their profits and power. the oligarchs DON'T teach their kids, the future oligarchs, to play by the same rules as they demand the rest of us follow. they generationally instill into their kids the principles of their birthright, their entitlement, their superiority and privilege over us mere "common" folk. they teach them the importance of predation and greed. its a tale of two conflicting societies; one for the elite and the other for the comlen - the rest of us.

@LMLewis .... the sad part is few, IF ANY, on the right OR left talk about REALITY anymore.
flooding the labor market is what provides the corporations with a steady flow of cheap, slave labor. the flood of illegal immigrants combined with replacing human labor with automated labor, the reduction of jobs in the job market is what decreases the value of labor. both trump and biden increased employment rates by increasing the number of the working poor. people don't know, mostly because of willfull ignorance, that 80-90% of the poor HAVE JOBS! many homeless HAVE JOBS!
under capitalism the more there is of something the less value it has. the more scarce something is the more value it has. gold has NO instrinsic value. its valuable because its rare. the corporate elite are doing the same thing with housing as we speak. the rich are buying up mortgage companies, private homes and rental properties creating a housing shortage that's driving up housing costs.
the rich use the govt to INCREASE their profits. employers pay poverty level wages, deny decent medical coverage and then instruct the govt to use TAX DOLLARS to help THEIR employees survive on a daily basis. for instance 70% "food stamps" go to the employed.
corporations use BIG GOVT to subsidize their labor costs. all govt programs do is pay the EXTORTION demanded by the rich on behalf of the poor. THE RICH eventually recieve the money from EVERY govt program intended to help the poor.
and then of course we have WAGE SLAVERY and DEBT SLAVERY. CAPITALISM IS SLAVERY! BIG GOVT is the result of capitalism NOT socialism. the elite use big govt to enforce their will, protect their privilege, profits and wealth and to cover their social responibilities.
sorry for the length of my comment.
