Our government is so god damn weak. Corporations run this country with a jungle grip. Some people rag on Europe a lot, but they sure have much better governments than us by a long shot.
For now. All capitalism trends towards end stage. Reforms are just delay the inevitable, not prevent it entirely.
Think back to the 20th century labor movement. Could in your wildest dreams imagine such a movement occurring this day and age? But let's just pretend everything goes perfect and we get a other similar labor movement right now. The best we can hope for is a temporary cease fire in the class war while the 1% works its way back into positions of power.
All the blood sweat and tears shed making the new deal were wasted. Flushed down the drain because they negotiated with financial terrorists. like trying to make peace with russia...
Capitalism always leads to the same dead end. Let's try out something new. Maybe we haven't even created the next way to live our lives yet? How could we find such a thing if we keep going around in a circle in this sarlac pit?
