Cool leave all the executive and judicial positions for the children of the rich. They'll make ethical decisions that benefit everyone
That, and they also keep changing it. When too many middle class people make good many with trades, they call it inflation and engineer a recession that depresses those wages.
When too many middle class people are getting higher education, they raise tuition and burden us with debt.
The real answer is: do what you love, if you're good at it and if it provides objective value to society.
And all together, we must have middle class solidarity to reign in the power the elites have over us and make sure we own and control the wealth and housing stock, while they pay high taxes and not us.
If we don't demand our share of the pie, we will end up with scraps and our children will end up with even less.
abolish the state
That's where the dictatorship of the people comes in.
Frankly, this is where I borrow a page from Mao's Little Red Book. If you had the sort of education that only wealth and privilege can grant you, you have no right to hold political power.
Your words are self-defeating. A dictatorship is based on privilege for the few.
Also: Your only solution for classism is put some power concentration on it?
One Worker to rule them all, One Worker to find them, One Worker to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
