Look nearly everyone is open to suggestions on what could be a better economic system than what we have now.
We’re all ears. Let us know when you think of something. In the meantime, let’s spend all our energy helping those less fortunate than ourselves.

This is how American Capitalism works!
Bezos Sells $3.1 Billion of Amazon Shares After Wealth Jumps
The numbers are eye-popping: 1 million Amazon.com Inc. shares offloaded for more than $3.1 billion. And yet for the seller, Jeff Bezos, it barely puts a dent in his stake in the e-commerce giant.
The disposal, disclosed Wednesday in Securities and Exchange Commission filings, adds to a $4.1 billion sale earlier this year. The proceeds are a fraction of the amount that Bezos’s holdings have increased this year as the Covid-19 pandemic forced people to stay at home and created a surge in demand for Amazon’s e-commerce services.
For Bezos, 56, this year has been a reversal from years of relative restraint in reducing his stake in Amazon. He still holds more than 54 million shares and is worth $189.8 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. His net worth has surged by $74.9 billion this year with Amazon stock rising 73%.
- Yup. He'll end up being the poster boy for greed if he doesn't do something soon.formed
- He should personally pay for every human to have unhindered access to any covid test, treatment or vaccine. That would be a start.monospaced

capitalists are pouring everything they can into stirring the discontent among the masses because the second class consciousness overcomes racial bias in america is the second the tide turns in western power
this mass of evictions that is about to take place could very well create something, but more that likely it will lead to a massive shit show
- Politically C_s, how would you describe yourself?Morning_star
- Second class consciousness... Uhm what? So corps or people have this? Or is it merely like nytimes was dead until trump won.deathboy

"WolfStreet: Wow, That Was Fast: Debt Out the Wazoo
US National Debt Spiked by $1 trillion in 5 weeks to $26 trillion. Fed monetized 65%. Business debts spike to high heaven.
Trillions are now whooshing by at a breath-taking pace. The US gross national debt – the total of all Treasury securities outstanding – jumped by $1 trillion over the past five weeks, from May 4 through June 8, and by $2.5 trillion for the 11 weeks since March 23.
The total US national debt outstanding has reached $26 trillion, according to the Treasury Department. The huge mountain of debt that took decades to grow to this gargantuan size has exploded by another 10% in just 11 weeks.
The curious flat spots in the chart are the periods when the national debt bounced into the Congress-imposed debt ceiling. During these periods, the government borrowed from federal pension funds and other internal sources – the “extraordinary measures” – to make ends meet, thereby continuing to borrow, and when the political charade was resolved and the debt ceiling was raised, bam, the debt jumped by hundreds of billions in weeks. Now the debt jumps by the trillions in weeks on a routine basis..."

In the USA, health care is tied to your job. No job, no health care. So much of the US system is a house of cards just waiting to collapse in a disaster like this.
