Neoliberalism, Reaganomics, trick-down economics, whatever you want to call it: it's a wall that's going to come down. It's not going to come down because of any one thing, but because of millions of little & no-so-little things: a campaign here, an organizing effort there...1/3

a podcast or article here and so forth. So many are pushing against the wall every day & the combined efforts are going to pay off some day. At a certain point the accumulated energy, the love of justice in the face of a rigged system, is going to turn into political force...2/3

required to overcome a system of economic injustice and corruption of our government that stands in the way of millions of people's lives. What matters is that on any given day, we all do something - anything at all - to lean against the wall.3/3

Sounds like gibberish. What does this mean? How about lift all boats? Much easier to understand.

I appreciate your optimism. Mainstream and other media really doesn't help, maybe because they are part of the wall.

Pushing socialism is not the answer. Capitalism works when not overwhelming corrupt. Big Pharma, Big Everything own the media & politicians.Push politicians to bring back anti-trust laws& apply them to Big Philantrophy.Time for the government to sue Bill Gates again for monopoly

You guys are hilarious. Your 401k's the past 15 saw otherwise. Go complain about the environment or some other lie.

I think most people call it "conservatism," traditional economic conservatism of the old utopian "free market" variety and more recently the somewhat more sophisticated bad economics in the conservative style formulation. It predated the "neoliberals" and President Regan.

I hate and mistrust billionaires as much as the next person but I’m curious if you’ve watched Ray Dalio’s viral video👇 and what you think of it? youtube.com/xguam0TKMw8

How do we get rid of bosses?

All of those things go are the bedrock of capitalism. They won't go down until the economic system that sustains them goes down.

Sounds great but at such a slow place doesn’t sound like we will all be around to see it

Agreed. But there are always newer impediments. Beware of the new wall.
