Progress be progress. We’ll get there folks.

I lol’Ed and snorted. Thanks!

I am curious, do you know why they can’t kill it? The only reason I can think of is that “new” reddit requires access or something?

For sure. Society has moved beyond a few breaking points. I still think something what you described in your reply would help ease some of the growing wealth gap even if implemented today, but I know actually realizing such a program is a fantasy.

I followed an index fund investing method and am now removed from many pain points of capitalism. I try to share this anybody who bring up “I am worried about my future as I have no plans.” Many enjoy the conversation, but if even one in a hundred actually makes efforts to follow it means at least they will benefit.

I really agree with your comment. It is a relationship and that relationship has been tipped in favor of one side that has taken things to extreme and fails society.

You mention making the doers part-owners. I’ve always found buying broad based index funds that buy the entire stock market the easiest way to do that.

I wish we required (yes I know how people feel about that word) everybody to invest 10% of their paycheck into something like that. If we had started this 40 years ago the workers would all be owners and benefit from the raising stock market.

You’d also have to teach people to buy and hold for their career (the long-term) but some would still sell for dumb reasons like a new iPhone or PS5.

So yeah…

This also worked for me for the longest time. I recently stopped using Reddit (as we all should) but if you gotta use it at least use old.reddit.com/r/subredditname

Good. Cancel your streaming services. All of them. Just pirate shit.
