My biggest issue with the channel is that a good portion of the videos are just ads for companies

There hasn't been a war on U.S. mainland in 150 years. If a misil hits it it could trigger easily WWIII. Last attack on U.S. was 9/11 and that started multiple wars.

Yeah, although I appreciate those minutes because my dailies overlap with the time interval my body decides is time to take a shit

Yeah but almost all his voters are not oligarchs by statistics, they are just stupid

Which doesn't make sense either because historically all economic indicators have been better on average during democrat governments than republican ones

Self driving cars are not going to stop car ownership, that's pure CEO fantasy. The logistics of it doesn't make any sense. Gig economy it's the opposite of even distribution, it's companies owning everything and workers owning nothing. Stop drinking the neoliberal kool aid.

You don't own the stall of a public toilet and you can still expect to use it without having people walk on you. It's like we can all agree to distribute resources and keep rights like privacy without the need of property.

No, you don't know how to do math.

Top 1% in USA has 42 trillion dollars. People with more than 12 billion dollars have a total of 3 trillion dollars, from which you want to let them remain with about 1 trillion.

So this cap only redistributes 2 trillion from the 1%, which is less than 5% of the wealth that they are hoarding. This doesn't fix shit. Do you still not get it?

That cap only affects to the top 0.0001% of richest americans. So it does matter because there are 10000 more people in the 1% than in the bracket your cap affects to. And you don't even want to redistribute all their money, they could keep more money than they could spend in a thousand lives.

At this point I think you are larping because this is the most ridiculous thing I have seen trying to pass as a progressive initiative.

Lol, 12 billion dollar cap. That's about the GDP of Somalia. Surely that will eradicate wealth inequality.

Majority rule is not the same as democracy. I think you are the one in need of some reading.

That is not how democracy works. You can not democratically oppress people. Was Nazi Germany a democracy then?
