@devinlent1556 Cancel national debt as those who made the loans didn't need the money in the first place.

@robertlowther6979 The rich don't need their money since most is profit so 100% tax on profits and then we can talk about tax brackets on CEO salaries and wages. No tax on anyone paid at an rate hourly rate below a union autoworker or union tradesman.

@savingferris8279 Capital produce nothing. Prove that wrong. Trade produces nothing Prove that wrong. Labor produces everything by transforming nature. Since capital and trade produce nothing why should capitalist and traders deserve more than the laborers? Please explain that inside of claiming you own money. Can you use a million paper Confederate dollars at the store? Keynes advised the British Capitalist how to rob the workers with inflation by using a central bank and Nixon said we all Kensian's now after freeing the dollar from it chains of gold. .Why don't we give you all the money and see if you can spend a paper dollar without government guns backing it up.

@michaelhill8441 The problem with capitalism is overproduction drives down capital value. Since capital is only paper and elections not a limited by a Gold supply anymore. Then we just need to drive down profits by being paid in absolute value while the profit goes plus and minus around zero and after total capital value goes to nothing since capital produces nothing. This way you gain a clearer accounting system. In case of trades like MD's where you have to much price for labor time because of shortage of educated people you drive down the price with education of more Doctor's and raise the general educational level of the working class as a whole. This way you can easily move workers around when you need more of something in a different industry.

@Bugginout79 No because their wealth is on paper or represented by electrons. Its all most all in US Banks represented by federal reserve notes the world's reserve currency. Will they exchange it for China's People's Money or EU Euros? Because they can't escape into space on Blue Virgin or with Jeff Bezo's new Shepard. Bosses move overseas just like they moved South because racial and ethnic division is mores profitable. By fighting US Imperialism you help push up wages in the poor countries making BOSS Capital exit less profitable.

@Bugginout79 The successful take chances do they? They are merely successful gambles. Gambling is actual nothing more than statistical probability worked out as a mathematical science. I know how to play those games also. You see they call those guys actuary's. This are how insurance works. What does the modern capitalist risk? Does he risk his life when the refinery blow sky high? Does he risk his neighborhood when the oil train derails and erupts in a fire ball? No you say he risks his capital. But is that even true anymore? Because he centralized risk with a Central Bank. He worried about what Marx had said about Gold being a store of value. So he worried so much about losing it that at the end of WW2 the centralize Gold in the biggest cache in the world the at the New York US Federal Reserve cellars because they didn't want to lose any to the commies. Then after 1959 Minister of Finance Che Guevara flanked with Party lawyers walk out with Cubas gold being transfer to Havana after a legal battle in a New York US Federal Court. Gold left New York for Havana. France want Gold for Dollars and so you decided that Kenyes who had advised the British capitalist to rob the workers with inflation by the creation of Fiat currency was correct and that now makes the US dollars nothing but abstract numbers with no fixed relation to values. So the capitalist who creates nothing risks nothing and now has nothing but armed guards protecting Gold stored away in US federal reserve bank cellars.

@Bugginout79 What you see depends on frame of reference so If I sit on a train it appears as if the world is moving and if I'm on the ground than the train is moving. This is why people who have different ways of making a living see things differently. This is why the workers see and think differently then the bosses because we have different class interests and live different lives and get paid differently.

@Bugginout79 People like me could do the math but could not learn to spell and write. They let me have a college scholarship to MIT despite an extremely low score on the English ACT probably because the thought English was my second language. I decided it would be best to change the system. Since all you've done is become another part of it.

@merlinnwolffe8534 Need to teach facts and what was said about the problems how the different groups compromised and what their needs and wants were. What all could agree on and what all could not agree on and why they could not agree on everything. Why there were different states with different ways of governing. How the new government reflected England's with a King, a house of lords (landowners) a house of commons (people), the courts. How and why King Charles was ordered to be executed by parliament. Why the King was restored and what happened afterwords.

@mikes3827 Problem's are the result of the capitalist way of thinking and doing things. The capitalist parties can not fix capitalism because it essential nature is to be competitive and become predatory. Keynesian economics does not work because capital produces nothing. You can't expect to violate the 1st and 2nd law of thermodynamics with theories that require capital produce without labor. Now we are seeing how numbers have everyone scared in the capitalist government of defaulting on the national debt and how their are no clear lines drawn between government, finance and monopoly capitalism. That they all work together in the interests of capital. The socialization of capital is the socialization of parasitism. Only the socialization of labor into a vast organization of the producers can move us past this stage in history.

@seanmamedov1151 Capital produces nothing so the correct tax on profits would be 100%. Since you can't water gold to make it grow in a bank like economist Keynes and Freedman postulate.
