Comments by "Animal Farm" (@animalfarm7467) on "Minneapolis Socialist Out-Raises Entire Establishment For City Council" video.
Jimmy, Ginger Jentzin appears to be a politician working for the people but what scares me is the naivety of politicians on the left. When Ginger says, 14:47 “I think we need to be talking about taxing these companies to building the communities; build the affordable housing we need”, she appears to be ignorant of the race to the bottom for the many. The system is designed domestically to allow corporations to relocate to areas where there are lower wages (Texas); where there is less regulation, and where taxes are to the liking of the executive class. If a city or state doesn’t provide favorable conditions, the company will just relocate to the economic and regulatory environment they deem most suitable. When the governments are owned by corporations, this is a race to the bottom for the workers. And don’t think you can escape this betrayal of the people by moving international. It has taken forty years to build and now there is a similar Western international structure of control. It is called globalism. I appreciate Ginger Jentzin’s attempt to change the direction of the class war, but if she creates too much heat for the oligarchs, those with the money will just extract it from her locality forcing the sale of municipal bonds as the only alternative for funding. A local approach to this problem will never work; this requires a Western Global approach.
