(24,461 posts). . . but people cannot pay five to six-digit cancer bills via bake sales and fundraisers and it's nothing short of barbaric to expect them to. Student debt is crippling America. Automation promises to replace great swaths of physical labor. Our climate problems are displacing thousands upon thousands from their livelihoods. America is WOEFULLY unprepared to deal with these problems, all because we refuse to even slightly inconvenience rich people.
"Politically unachievable" better be enacted, lest we want a broke to bankrupt population. Anyone who thinks "Capitalism As Is" and this "Blessed Holy Church of the Free Market" are going to solve the problems they create . . . THAT'S the delusional one who's swimming in bullshit, NOT us.
