Absolutely. Most people being low on money is essential to making the system work.

Otherwise, no one would take terrible low-paying jobs that pay for billionaires’ lavish lifestyles.

And so is the real estate market. Any excess of money you get sinks into having a place to live. Once population overall earns more, housing prices skyrocket. It’s an ingenious trap to keep us eternally broke and powerless, while feeding the rich.

There’s no market-based solution for this. We need a serious intervention. As long as we don’t put the working majority first, unsurprisingly, the world is gonna suck.
