@KimPerales there are no damn “rules” when all the wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few, because the rules come from the laws of large numbers.A relative few very wealthy people can change the way a market/economy functions if they have all the damn money.Like hedge funds buying up single family homes

@anderspuck If this isn’t a screaming neon sign that western democracies have to pay attention to financial transparency and influence on politicians & government officials I don’t know what is.We have let our own billionaires corrupt our system and make it vulnerable to foreign authoritarian government influence.

@anderspuck it’s been a very long time since public debate in the U.S. made any damn sense.If it did we would currently be discussing how to completely cease all economic activity with Russia and penalize any U.S. companies that engage in doing so even through third our fourth party arrangements.The discussion over military aid wouldn’t be focused on 40 year old air frame like they are some kind of gift from heaven, and ATACMS would already be in country.

If you make the median #income or below a massive portion of your #money goes to #housing #rent #food and #transportation #gas Those costs suck, so those metrics that keep getting trotted out don’t mean a damn for tens of millions of Americans not to mention #healthcare and people suffering from the issues of #covid So for the #election?Maybe focus on #ukraine and #abortion & #democracy if you want #biden to win

@t_mkdf @kravietz @Ruth_Mottram sounds like what is needed is leadership, spelling out why hardship maybe required perhaps after the rich are taxed more.Though actually leadership in western democracies has been lacking for well past my 50 year lifetime.

@t_mkdf @Ruth_Mottram @kravietz again, pasha what ever see above. All that is needed is someone to pound the table say:Violent aggression bad.Murder bad.Sacrifice to prevent the above good, if your greed supercedes the above you are a bastard.That’s leadership

@kravietz @t_mkdf @Ruth_Mottram there is a damn war on the gates of Europe with whole cities destroyed. Russia as a nation is militarization not standing down. They are binding themselves to Iran & North Korea as well as China, what you are talking about can be chatted about in coffee shops by people in tweed jackets it’s not material to the leadership needed

@Ruth_Mottram @kravietz @t_mkdf I believe you are getting pretty far afield. Leadership starts by focusing people on A task and rallying them to it, not engaging in a broad ranging philosophical debate, that in a word is academic which is the opposite of leadership.

@t_mkdf @Ruth_Mottram @kravietz what failed us with Russia and with the whole neo liberalism is missing the trueism that sociopathy Increases with networth. So economic engagement was never the fuel for liberal democracy, it’s the other way around.

This #election is shining a spotlight the ugly moldering rank stickiness that pervades the U.S. political, legal and social structures.We had the chance, in 2018 with the mortgage crisis, we had the chance after #Trump and the initial wave of #covid and still those in power failed to change.Now we are at the edge of a cliff.Our leader are screaming to #voters “save us”I fear for the country and the world even if trump & the extrem #gop losses will the old gop infiltrate the #dem party?
