We as Citizens need to start acting like this is our damn country, and we deserve to have a minimum quality of life that isn’t garbage, just for being citizens, not even for working 40hrs a week at slave wages while billionaires make themselves incrementally into trillionaires. We deserve healthcare we can afford, we deserve housing we can afford, we deserve vehicles we can afford and don’t break down with planned obsolescence constantly. The rich deserve equal return on their investment to the effort they put into it. I don’t know exactly how that looks because I want retirement funds, and investments for the average person to actually pay, while the investments for the rich pay them enough to barely keep their quality of life. Probably caps on annual returns would do it, if the rich suddenly CAN’T take more from the stock market, then it goes to the poor’s cuz it has to go someplace. Is what I’m saying anti capitalism? No more than bailouts for failed businesses that cause recessions and giving their executives golden parachute leave packages, so anyone against it but for bailouts, isn’t a capitalist either. Giving capital to failed businesses is the antithesis of capitalism.
