Establishment politicians, often stuck in 20th C mindset, don’t want to look at root causes of our problems because of how often their policies ARE the root causes. 2/6

We end up thinking we have a lot of different problems - environmental, food supply, education, poverty, mental health, violence, criminal justice reform, health care and more - when there is one core malfeasance that connects them all: a fundamental lack of economic justice that infuses our operating system. 3/6

In the 1970s the average worker could afford a car, a house, a yearly vacation, and to send their kids to college. One salary could sustain a family of four. 4/6

Over the last 50 years we have sucked $50 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans, creating an obscenely bloated fraternity of billionaires for whom the US treasury is a gilded piggy bank and leaving millions of people struggling on a daily basis to simply make it at all. 5/6

A government that maintains and perpetuates that inequity has a lot of nerve calling itself “qualified.” Qualified to drive a car means nothing if in the final analysis you’re on the wrong road. 6/6

Get a grip. Billionaires pay zero taxes & have an outsized role in public policy by buying politicians. It’s the Trump tax scam that contributes to the inequalities. And of course these dangerous billionaires are all in on fascism. A danger to the middle class.

DC politicians at the behest of their donors are asset stripping the US dry. They rob the US Treasury right in front of our eyes. And that's not enough. They continue to build the debt by printing money. They won't stop until US defaults. They all have 2nd citizenship in hand.

🤔 I asked Chat GPT how much money a 5% tax on the world’s multi-millionaires and billionaires would raise😎. The answer, $1.7 trillion, enough to lift 2 billion, a quater of the world population, out of poverty. 🤪🥸
