An old tradition of dividing up a kill by two hunters in a “fair” way: One hunte

CJKent (Banned)
“The more a person needs to be right, the less certain he is...”
This method motivates the first hunter to divide the spoils as evenly as possible.

In modern civilizations this tradition of dividing fairly the product of work has been lost to the cunning and venal capitalist masters.

“Our civilization is being sacrificed for the opportunity of a very small number of people to continue making enormous amounts of money.

Our biosphere is being sacrificed so that rich people in countries like mine can live in luxury. It is the sufferings of the many which pay for the luxuries of the few.”

~ Greta Thunberg

    Capitalism could never have developed without first gaining control of the government. It depends upon this hourly.

    One of the easiest ways to promote better income equality would be to cap the ratio of executive and management pay vs producer pay in companies.

    ^^^^^ Hard to enforce that and make it work.

    What I support is Universal Basic Income, Medicare for all. Free College, and a strong cost controlled public housing option.

    Bring back the old Schedule G income averaging, tax Capital Gains as regular income.

    70% top tax bracket pre-Reagan taxation.

    Do all this and at least materially, you've got Heaven on Earth.

    More people working, more people able to run their own businesses.

    But less money to inflate the stock and real estate markets.
