Something has to give, eventually. Those at the top are bleeding every penny from those underneath and it’s reaching a point where the masses have nothing left to give.

We’re being gouged at every turn- food, housing, education, healthcare, and things will hit critical mass sooner than later. These fuckers at the top are making millions or BILLIONS per year while 50% of the country makes ~$40,000.

It’s either one time like this or the damn breaks and it turns into the common folk going on a rampage against the rich. Everything is just boiling over slowly.

And that narrative makes sense to me until I realize that the electorate still picked rich guys backed by other rich guys...
