The funny thing is, we try to figure out what the problem is but this is quite literally: the result of capitalism.
If you look at everyone's problem, it's always centered around something that is caused by a capitalist system. People replacing them at work, drug problems, social degradation.
If the state of the world today is evidence of anything it's that capitalism failed hard lol fucking shitter system.
It cant do anything to stop this chaotic downward spiral. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer, the middle class get called nazi's.
We're running at peak capitalism right now, best possible outcome, because that's what we've had.
This is America at it's best lol

This isn't true at all though? The rich get richer, sure, who cares. They aren't stealing from anyone. The poor of today are WAYYYY more wealthy than the poor demographic of say, 1950. People always says there's no upward mobility and that's just not true. If you're not a totally lazy slob with no marketable skills, you will likely exist in both the middle, upper-middle, and upper classes at some point in your life.
Capitalism, for all it's faults (and it has them, but that's mainly in corruption, not some inherent property of the system itself), owns and has cured more poverty than any other system ever. Socialism and communism do nothing but *create* poverty. Please see: All of modern history.
