I'm watching from the other side of he world from you where crime is of course present in the city I live in, but not to the scale of what Megyn and Nick are talking about. I think of solutions to things in a different way than a social scientist. I am an artist and inventor---so I have no authority or schooling to back up what I am going to say. But I think what you are seeing is a crime wave that has gone past the ability of the police to deal with it other than a guerilla war type of thing. Like in Vietnam, the soldiers couldn't tell who the enemy was half the time because they all dressed the same. What am I getting at? Well, for one thing you've got the 2nd Amendment and the right to bear arms. If I were living in America, the first thing I would do is to carry a handgun, because the plain simple truth of the matter is that it could get you out of a hot spot and save your life and the lives of others when a robbery or car jacking was taking place. Secondly, we have to think of how to cure this problem and I know you will see this as very much in the extremes, but we have to realize that the capitalist system, capitalism, is an ancient economic system some say began in 1694 when The Bank of England issued the first bonds. Boys and girls, that's over 300 years ago. Like we are still resolving international conflicts with weapons of war instead of diplomacy, we have a global economic system that lets far too many people out of the loop. We have to realize that capitalism's basic design is like feudalism on steroids, we don't have a prince who runs the show, but it keeps popping up that all the dough goes to the top1%. We can't blame the 650 billionaires in your country for working hard and making the American Dream, but I think we have to realize that it's not the fault of the people who end up making most of the money; it's the design fault of the system itself. It wasn't meant to be something where everyone gets a piece of the pie. Your government leaders and the Fed Chairpersons have tweeked it, used QE to the max, given out stimulus checks worth trillions and what we see is an enraged underclass that missed out on getting a place in society in spite of everything that has been done. This is a time to re-think how society runs and realize we have to upgrade the economic model to fit present-day needs. Lastly, in a few months I will have a book published---a revision of a book already published that proposes a new economic model. It's utopic, but what I hope is that economists will dive in and find out if there are any ideas in my system that could be made to get you in America and us around the world on a better path towards economic freedom for all. My book is called 'The Treatise of Teknomix'. The disclaimer is that I am not an economist.
