    This platform is so incredibly out of touch with reality, especially the more left leaning side of things.

    A millionaire these days just means you’ve paid off your mortgage and have a decent amount put away for retirement.

      I only half agree with this assessment. Most million dollar homes are million dollar homes due to billionaires and firms poaching housing from actual families and driving up prices.

      Idk WHERE we draw the line, but I absolutely say we start culling from the top and see where we land.

      Marx himself wrote this long ass book explaining the capitalism of his time, yet modern leftist have no interest understanding the capitalism of their time.
