People will shun this as socialism. Sometimes I feel like humanity in this stage of the game seems to want to have the best of both worlds. The unbridled kill or be killed, biggest and strongest wins aspect of the wild but the innovations and progress that comes from community, which inevitably comes from working together and supporting each other as one species.

You think the billions of people living on Earth in poverty is all due to "A failing economic system"?
Yes

If we had a working economic system those people would be able to support themselves

Whats more beneficial to a rich person... someone working and putting money back into the economy (and companies they have ownership in) or someone who is starving who the rich person has to pay taxes for the govt to support

How can a rich person make more money off of somebody who doesn't have any money vs someone who does and is willing to spend it?

:banderas: I knew these sort of post would begin popping up sooner or later.
I cant wait to see how far down the hole this board goes :steviej:
:whoa:

Dont speak in generalities, we are not a monolith here. The presence of your goofy ass is proof of the range of opinions here.

And there are ways the rich are stealing from the poor... I educated u in another thread. But these brehs in here don't have that kind of understanding of the world.

Communism/ value-less wealth transfers are definitely not the answer... stop looking in the next mans pot.
