cobalt32@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 hours agoHave you considered that the people were only given two options, bad and worse? The bad option wasn’t working out for people, so they decided to try the worse one, and now we’re here.
There are countless examples of the government ignoring popular demand. Extensive polling shows that most Americans support a wealth tax. It’s not going to happen because almost every politician is paid for by billionaires. Have you heard of super PACs?

this is just more argument for billionaires being worse than the government. remove moneyed interests and you’ll have a functioning government beholden to the people.
