The more I hear JP talk the stupider he sounds. "The system is working so don't mess with it." Yeah, for you and the billionaires, what about the rest of us? "Any tweaks inevitably make the system worse in more ways than better." No, they don't. Look at any country with healthcare or real wages, that aren't imperialists gunning down innocent people and journalists. He's right that the systems are complex but his black and white thinking that either you have what we have now (unbridled capitalism) or utter devastation and "communist" revolution and chaos, is just plain stupid. “Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them.” ― George Orwell - Never use a long word, where a short one will do. - If it’s possible to cut a word out and retain your core message, cut it. - Never use passive language where you can use active. - Never use jargon or a foreign word when you can communicate the same information with an everyday English equivalent. - Orwell JP takes this as a challenge to do the exact opposite.
