    None of your proposals would work for long, they only touch symptons of the real problem. We should be dismantling capitalism. It’s the system itselft that allows the massive unequality we see around us, and it’s by design.

      Bullshit

      Capitalism at its core that you allow free trading. And. It. Has. Been. Successful. Capitalism is what killed the USSR by sheer force.

      The problem arises when it’s not controlled at all. Apply those rules well and you get a powerhouse generating huge progress for everyone and the taxes and all will be able to pay for the social security network on top of that ensuring nobody gets left behind

      You can go to communism Island if you want and suffer under economic mismanagent, bit I’d rather have capitalism, thank you

        You can go to communism Island if you want

        Despite all the propaganda, there is no place right now on the face of our planet that is under communism.

        bit [sic] I’d rather have capitalism, thank you

        Well, aren’t you fortunate, you already have all the capitalism you want, anywhere you go. Choke on it.
