    Go ahead and trust the biggest liars on the face of the planet. War lord prison industry profiteering peices of trash who spend more on a weekend vacation than you could earn in a dozen lifetimes.

    The price of gold has gone up in tandem with the amount of money being printed and the shift of wealth acquisition from the bottom to the top. 86 years ago till 50 years ago the share of wealth for the bottom 80% of society was around 90% now its the other way around the top ten percent control 90% of the wealth. 50% of Americans have less than 200,000 in assets and liquid. 60% of workers live paycheck to paycheck with no emergency savings a majority of millennials and gen z are never going to own a home never going to have retirement savings and be forced to work till they are too sick to do so with the hopes that social security isn’t gutted and nonexistent in 30-60 years

    You may think im crazy however you and i likely have a much different intellectual capacity. Im guessing your iq is average at best? Maybe 110 at most? But whatever you want to believe. Even double the highest minimum wage today is garbage. People used to be motivated to work by the fact that the wages offered provided a better quality of life but today the only thing motivating a majority of people to work is the coercive threat of homelessness starvation and loss of dignity.

    Ive received the same pushback for espousing these ideas and its always the same bullshit. Trust what wall street tells you, they are the experts, you’re just a conspiracy theorist nut job crackpot.

    So really all I have to say is kindly go and Kick rocks buddy.

        Boot flavored gum must be really tasty these days.

        the difference between you and I is that I realized our society as it is currently ordered isnt worth participating in whereas you seemingly still believe capitalism rewards the amount of hard work one puts into the system.

        So why are you even in this community? To troll people you deem less human than yourself? I bet you sleep alone at night.

          Lol you think because I don’t condone wanton theft and lawlessness, that because I’m not a psycho libertarian it means I support capitalism?

          Quite narrow minded. You lack vision and nuance.

          Sadly for you, existence is more complex than “capitalism bad”. Some things with really well as a capitalist venture (like trying to start any endeavor that takes large initial investment to get going because it’s only viable when produced at scale). Other things are fucking horrifying to manage as capitalist endeavors (like prison and healthcare and education).

          You’re like a puppy, easily distracted by the shiniest thing and unable to hold more than one concept at a time.

          I’m done. I’ve wasted enough time talking to you, you walking, talking, “is it me who’s wrong? No it’s them” principal skinner meme 😂
