    How do you stop this crap. That money could have paid for universal healthcare many times over.

    Rob the poor to pay the rich USA mentality

      Organize. Find common bonds even with people who kind of suck.

      If you’re on a jury and the law is bullshit, nullify. (You don’t have to show your work when you give your verdict and they can’t say you gave the wrong answer. You can just say not guilty, even if that plumber really did push that billionaire into a wood chipper feet first.)

      You’d need some kind of large popular movement engaged in a collective struggle to reassert ownership over the physical and bureaucratic infrastructure of their communities.

      Really no other way to become rich, when you think about it.

        Material and influencr rich to be specific.

        There are men who have less, know that’s enough for them, and let their surplus wealth circulate around their families and communities.

        Men who are rich by making other people rich cannot be compared.

        There’s levels. When the tariffs are for you friends and fuck the nation it’s broken.

        When you can bomb several counties and threaten others and not give a shot that jo public who can’t afford food has to find extra cash for gas …. To fund an illegal war.

        Never buy USA again
