@nicky_james @rbreich like you said we are hostages to billianaries. So how do we get out of that. Legistation is great expect for the fact that americal politicians are the most bribiable job in america. @Structure7780 @rbreich lol. You're not wrong about being the most bribable job. I think overturning Citizens United is a step in the right direction. One of the things I do for my dayjob is enact cultural change within organizations to help them adopt new technology and ideas. I think enacting a similar kind of cultural change, specifically targeting Republican voters, is a way to get us to passing more effective legislation.  @Structure7780 such a major issue. Happy holidays 🎁. Do you follow my daily review? @Structure7780 @rbreich Because they don't directly control the pricing of goods. They are individually unable to "pass it on.", as it would require steps that would violate existing anti-trust laws. |
@Structure7780 @rbreich are we supposed to just remain a hostage of the billionaire class? Purchasing other business to consolidate the entire private sector to a few duopolies that grant them the leverage to arbitrarily hike prices?
The only way we can successful enforce taxes on the rich without retaliation is through legislation. Set federal caps on prices and minimum production quotas. When corporations own everything we need to survive, we need to hold them to the fire.
