Seriously, congrats on this. Freedom, property and capitalism turned a small European colony into the most wealthy and prosperous land in the world. Then socialism, debt, and third world immigration wrecked it all, just like in the Roman Empire. Same mistakes again and again. After 1500 years, we have learned NOTHING. And in 1500 in the future another empire will crash because of the same mistakes. RIP USA.

I have faith on the future, but only if the US embraces the true economic science again and goes 100% for top tier tokenomics on the dollar. There's really no other way and sooner or later american politicians will realize. If the US can do that, they'll only have to just wait, Russia/China axis are communists and their economies will eventually collapse, like the USSR.

I do not compare the US to the Roman Empire because I heard someone do it. I like history. I'm no expert at all but I like it and I like to read stuff.

When the capitalists moderate their greed to sustainable levels, and when the majority of people are able to live comfortably, socialism/communism don't even enter into people's minds. Socialism is not a sickness, in and of itself. It is a symptom of a much greater illness. If the rich were simply a little less greedy, there would be no preconditions for these alternative economic models to even arise. You can point your fingers all you want at the big bad bogeymen, but the fact is that the distribution of wealth is fucked up in America.

The myopia of the capitalist class is always startling to me, in that their clutch on their shekels is so incredibly tight that they can see no higher priority. You may not like the poor for whatever reason, and that's fine. But if you can't logically see how a bunch of very fucking angry poor people might be deleterious to your freedom, property, and capitalism, you're just stupid.

In some ways, it was much better when the rich were aristocrats. An aristocrat is easier to mythologize, to hold up from afar. In Current Year, where it is blindingly obvious that the wealthy are humans of average (or often, far below average) moral character, it's just harder to be okay with it. Rich people overwhelmingly are assholes, and it is readily apparent. If there were some mechanism by which the economic elite could even be given the benefit of the doubt as to their moral character, it would be easier to stomach. There is no such mechanism. When the rich are often just people with less moral character and more greed, that's an absolutely poisonous societal image.

Like I said, it's really tough to have a lot of confidence in the current economic system when the (ostensible) rich don't appear to be materially better in any way than the rest of us. You, fren, are an excellent example of that. For the record, I work full-time and I'm not a """"communist shitlib redditard"""". Capitalism can absolutely work; it's just that, as I say here (>>54431320):
>When the capitalists moderate their greed to sustainable levels, and when the majority of people are able to live comfortably, socialism/communism don't even enter into people's minds. Socialism is not a sickness, in and of itself. It is a symptom of a much greater illness.

When you zoom out long enough, everything becomes roughly cyclical. The capitalists get so greedy that the underclass has to work harder and harder to keep its head above water, there comes along enough political willpower to enact substantial change, everyone is more or less happy again, rinse and repeat.

That is, of course, the optimistic version. In the worst case, the rich are so blinded by their own self-importance that they literally cannot even entertain the possibility that the underclass can actually do something about it. Even if the goal of the rich were to completely subjugate the poor, part of a good strategy to do so incorporates a realistic vision of what the poor are capable of doing. The rich get fat and lazy and are eternally surprised when the walls close in. This scenario sucks for everyone involved, and is best avoided.

The point of a meritocracy or social mobility is to allocate resources so that people with the greatest ability to change society are the most invested in the status quo. When pilots start divebombing tax buildings, we're already here, there will be problems, but it still won't be from NEETs.
