I just LOVE how you marxists/commies/leftists/progressives can only blame capitalism. When are you going to look at your government and blame your government for its spending? How the hell do you and your ilk function while ignoring the abuses of your government toward you and everyone around you, every single citizen of your nation? Instead lmao… you want to blame capitalism and only capitalism, not corrupt politicians, not their policies, not their agendas.

Could you not say that the forces of capitalism have brought about the greed, justification, etc. that leads to corrupt politicians, policies, agendas?
I think it’s more due “corporatism”, where government and certain privileged large corporations work together to enrich themselves at the sake of others. Technically not really capitalism, which is just a system of trade which uses capital rather than barter to facilitate trade. It’s important to be clear on these things if we want to fix problems.
Whatever idealized version of capitalism that is in your head is only a temporary state as the economic system regresses towards its natural end stage.
Its true, I don’t know which way of life is “the way”.
What I do I know is that the way of life we have is a piece of shit… has always been a piece of shit… and will continue to be a bigger and bigger piece of shit until we collectively flush it.
We need to try new things till something works. Fuck the status quo. Fuck the 1% who wishes they could be kings.
How do we effect societal change? We first need to get our hands on the wheel. We need more then two political parties so there is competition in the electoral process. We need new fresh ideas, not the dinosaurs of both legacy political parties.
We can get that with state level electoral reform. With a more representative voting system (such as, but not limited to Ranked Choice voting) people could vote for who best represents them, secure in the knowledge that their vote will still be counted if their preference didn’t win.
If the democrats and Republicans are to weak to compete because of the many many years of using First Past The Post voting as a crutch… that’s on them.
guys look a +500% price increase in less than one Gosling life time is totally normal capitalism

Was that really the comment that got removed? Why the fuck would a moderator remove that?
The blame falls on the receiving end of money.
They should have known better than to accept money that will override the will of its people/constituents.
