    why work hard when the social contract has been severed;

    There never was this. We had strong unions from the 1930s until the late 1970s. Since then, it’s been non-stop capitalism fests.

      Sure you can get a peace deal, just like you can get one with putin. The 1% kept soaking up the stolen surplus labor value, and have used that power and wealth to take us right back to the gilded age. when the time comes, no reforms… just a new way of life. We tried reforms yall. It did not work
