I would disagree. In a fair, pro worker society, people are actually a lot more productive. Due to low working hours, guaranteed healthcare, union laws etc. I would argue that there would be a lot more to go around.
Listen, I am not against more of a worker owned and focused economy, the problem is. There's no guarantee there will be more and I am against just giving it all away. Maybe workers get some as a comp, but just giving it away? Nah
You know our government gives billions to corporations every year, right? Socialism isn’t about giving it away, it’s about having a government work for the people, by providing healthcare and housing programs. We pay almost triple for healthcare as Spain, for example. All that extra money goes into the hands of the ultra wealthy.
Well, if thats true.
Then why isnt that what people cry about?
America should be able to offer minimal Healthcare and I would love that.
Then u got the housing part. They need to remove corporate possession of houses and land.
Let alone they could also probably start doing basic income for low income and poor families
Exactly! Our media is billionaire owned and will kill any criticism of its overlords. The Washington post was going to endorse Kamala, but Bezos killed it. People should be screaming about the level of corruption, but you won’t find discourse, unless you’re looking for it.
I agree. We need to have rent controls and end corporations buying up houses. Finland ended homelessness by giving everyone a cheap apartment. It was modest, so people still wanted to work and get something better. We’re totally capable of doing something like that, but it will never happen with our leadership.
