Name a government of any significant nation (ie not Luxembourg) and I’ll list the atrocities where they’ve wrongfully arrested and killed their citizens. The DNC doesn’t give a solid fuck about you, they like all politicians seek power and will do whatever they feel gives them the best odds of acquiring it. DNC panders to identity politics for the useful idiots that want to pat themselves on the back for accepting everyone’s fetishes, while the RNC wants to make every dumbass think they’re gonna be the next billionaire.

Go far enough left and you get Communists who murdered millions for wrongthink, go far enough right and you get Nazis who murdered millions for being the wrong race. Governments exist to abuse and enslave, that’s it. The more power you give them in either direction the further they take it towards one direction or the other.

Cute, you still think that lobbyists don’t have the most control, along with other interest groups, which are all controlled by billionaires - who also shape public opinion of gullible people through the media.

Why was the big healthcare bill that was so “controversial” essentially a gift wrapped present to the health insurance companies? The only benefit of Obamacare for most people was the elimination of denials for pre-existing conditions. Lobbyists ensured that and billionaires even fought that via republicans. Both parties are bought and paid for by corporate America.

DNC panders to minorities and pretends to give a single shit about the poor (but nothing more than a pittance of concern) while lining their pockets with bribe money from corporations while RNC thinks we should be happy if we even have a job that pays us sustenance and should suck billionaires’ cocks for being so generous with us lesser than people by paying us $11.25/hr to do all the real work in their corporate slavery.

Government is the enemy. Corporations are the enemy. Billionaires are the enemy. The only ones that can be trusted are those close enough to you to have earned trust. The only real solution forward is to tear this shitty system down and begin anew without the billionaires or existing political class.

I take it you’re ok with $200bn to another pointless war in the Middle East? Countless billions wasted? Politicians answer to the people in theory, but not practice.

Problem with that is it just transfers the money to the government, which is an own-goal for the people - look how it’s being used now, that’s how it’ll be used with any added tax. Trusting the government is just as foolish as trusting corporations or billionaires - and that goes for any government, honest people don’t become politicians. Going about it by way of tax just transfers power to the political system even more.

For the people to have any power the government needs to have reduced power. The best way to address billionaires is to address the system that creates them - by constraining capitalism enough to prevent monopolies and concentration of executive power in any one person or small group.

All corporations over 1,000 employees should be required to be employee owned co-ops with executive compensation approved by 70% employee vote.
