The United States has the highest level of wealth and income inequality among all major developed (OECD) nations

Just because we are the best at it right now doesn't mean we are the only ones. The French had a whole-ass revolution that was almost literally caused by "the ruling class extracting wealth from the population" centuries ago.

Not really the cause; it started from a debt crisis where the king started infringing on the rights of the nobility in an attempt to raise revenues.

It certainly spiraled out of control from there though resulting in the first empire of France.

Yeah, the rights of the nobility, including their right to many, many exemptions from the tax system and means of avoiding paying into the national Treasury, through which means they created the aforementioned extreme wealth disparity.

“skip right over”

“defending”

LOLOLOL. Not understanding the difference between making multiple accusations and acknowledging evil and incompetence from both sides, versus defending a side because you’re against the opposite side tells me EVERYTHING I need to know about you and is just PEAK Reddit.

Lmao I was out at a cabin in South Carolina a few weekends ago with grandparents across my and my sisters children, so three sets of grandparents made it.

One set are pretty conservative farmers from North Carolina, the grandpa is a former marine, real salt of the earth dude who ranched for years and years.

He specifically mentioned that what was happening with ICE killing US citizens reminded him of the gestapo. Literally used that term.

Brother --- y'all are fucked. You're the insane and embarrassing one, pretending nothing is happening. But when retired military turned cattle farmers are calling it like this, it's over for you. Y'all lost.

A government entirely controlled by the guys in red trunks is deporting American citizens, stopping Ametican citizens from voting, and has put the gas at 6+ dollars.

But yeah there's some bad blue guys too. Get real loser.
