The truth hurts, but if you accept it, it will set you free
Title couldn’t say it all.
“At a time of massive inequality and when the people on top have never had it so good, I cannot in good conscience vote for a bill that hurts working people.”

What he (Bernie) is saying is true nevertheless…
Toilet paper was a good trading item because hardly anyone ever had it so it was in demand. She said once you got accustomed to wiping your ass with old newspapers, you didn't mind trading the toilet paper. People who were only slightly better off than the poorest of the poor would often make deals for TP because even if you had enough money to buy it there just wasn't any available. They would give a good value trade, or pay you for it in rubles.
How pathetic is that?
More like 0.1% of regular ass humans (the media, the politicians, the religious leaders, the puppet presidents, the rich and powerful, etc etc) tricking the rest of us into fighting among ourselves while they rob us blind.”

"America sucks and needs to be dismantled."
The freedom we have is the freatest reward. However, it needs constant care and nurturing. America, these days, just needs adjusting now and then, not dismantling. Hopefully, next year we can all help to put a much better president and administration in place.
True. However it could also be a bored person dropping click bait.
Billions of people no longer face starvation. Plus, a handful of people have billions. Is that a bad thing ?
I will play along and answer your question.
Q: Billions of people no longer face starvation. Plus, a handful of people have billions. Is that a bad thing ?
A: It is a “bad thing” because there still millions and billions of people suffering hunger, war and slavery/exploitation in the world, thanks to the greed of few, you can all it whatever, it is just greed, envy, hatred, ignorance…
THE UNDENIABLE REALITY IS:
“It is the sufferings of the many which pay for the luxuries of the few.”
Wealth inequality in the world, also known as the wealth gap, is the unequal distribution of assets among residents of the world.
When can we start talking about the fact that exorbitant profits are merely unpaid fair wages?
An ideal distribution of the world’s wealth is one that assures that no individual human being is entirely without the means of housing and sustenance.
Most of our past and current “Economic Systems” Kingdoms, Feudalism, Capitalism etc etc create Poverty, Greed, Violence, Disease, and Environmental Destruction

And its only natural to greedily want more.
And I'm pretty sure everyone here is ok with being greedy. And it's a good thing in this context.
