We have so many houses going unused. We have food and resources for everybody, but we’ve set up a system that arbitrarily concentrates most of it on a few people! Young children, with no understanding why society is this way, are suffering and dying because they live in a world that collectively agrees to let this happen unnecessarily
Fuck, I’m stoned but you know I’m right
Edit: and the sad thought hits me: the first step is realizing the system doesn’t have to be this way, the second step is realizing it isn’t going to change, at least not any time soon
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.
