I'm no socialist, but it interesting how perception differs from reality in this instance.

 

I'm called a socialist on here for going a step further than just finding it interesting and actually suggesting people do something about changing it.

I find that interesting.

 

No, you're called a lot of things for constantly supporting of idiotic government policies.

 

It's an interesting video.

I was surprised this kind of thing was in the MSM (namely news.com.au), but of course the comments section let me down good and proper with at least half the comments bordering on retardation.

 

Interesting video, and quite scary too...i don'y know how long this can go on for..

 

untill the top 1% has +1,000% and the bottom 99% has -900% or SOMETHING changes

 

The inevitable result of constant compounding inflation. The rich cope with and use it to expand their wealth. The poor don't get that opportunity.

Until the fundamentals flaws are addressed in the measure of wealth, the money and banking system, it will continue. Politics is just window dressing. All the attempted wealth redistribution policies are just basically addressing the symptoms and not the disease. Like putting a band-aid on a broken bone. Or going to the doctor with appendicitis and being sent home with some painkillers.

The structure of corporations and the welfare they get from the state is another big part of the equation.

And another huge part is the military-industrial machine which chews up largely the poorer classes and converts their blood and bones to cash for the insiders.

The US system is so corrupt that the govt going bankrupt is the only solution. Liquidate it and start fresh.

Watch the video for some real eye opening news.

"Shame that those patriots are usually working class sons and daughters" - Aengrod

 

It's a self perpetuating problem that starts with whiners saying they want or need what that person has but are either unwilling or unable to produce it for themselves and who then in turn seek out others to obtain it for them at no cost to themselves, or so they think. There are those out there who are only to willing to assume the mantle of power under the guise of "fairness" or an equal playing field for all, except that is not how it turns out.
