Over the last 48 years there has been a $50T transfer of wealth from the bottom 90% to the top 1%. This has not been merely a transfer of wealth. It has been a transfer of hope, of opportunity, and in many cases even the possibility of a better life. A corrupt alliance of corporate and government power has hijacked our government, destroyed our middle class, eroded our democracy and is robbing us of a livable future. We don’t need to “improve” that system. We need to repudiate it. “You can have large amounts of money concentrated in the hands of a very few, or you can have democracy. You cannot have both.” - Louis Brandeis We need to cut the cord that ties us to an aberrational era of American history. We need a revolution at the ballot box. Marianne2024.com

The Bipartisan CARES Act was the largest transfer of wealth in the entirety of the US. BOTH parties are corrupt corporate owned stooges doing the bidding of the oligarchs who run this oligarchy. b

Why didn't you just start it at Obama? Oh wait that wouldn't reflect the bs narrative you're trying to spew for corrupt corporate owned stooge Democrats like Obama where 95% of the wealth went to the top 1% during his regime.

Class warfare! Hateful and divisive!

Question: didn't you encourage people to vote for biden??
Replying to @marwilliamson
Call out Dems as much as Republicans for this corruption. Biden in particular, he's been in office most of those years and sponsored or supported every bill that destroyed the middle and working class. If you are too timid to take the criminals on by name, I cannot support you.

Imagine creating something so many people use that it makes you wealthy. Stating that it's a transfer of wealth is a complete misrepresentation. They created something people wanted and use and you want to penalize them for it. 40% of households don't pay income tax. Tax them.

Today, the 1% transferred money to me in exchange for the 40 hours of work I gave them this week. And now I'll transfer some of that for food, shelter, savings, and a six pack (not Bud Light). Rinse and Repeat!
