As part of the revolution, we’ve definitely got to figure out how to do to them what they did to our industries and economic mores.

Disrupt them.

Get pension plans off the stock market. It’s madness. You are the first person I’ve ever heard call the stock market exactly what it is. Gambling. Thanks for that.

No more bail outs. Tax and fiscal feasance isn’t sexy, fun, or easy for most people to grapple with but we’ve got to start paying attention to what goes on at a national level in that department and put a stop to the bleed out.

Local too.

Financial crimes by politicians need to be met with harsher penalties. Like quicker removal from office (suspension at the point of grand jury indictment), (upon conviction) stripping of most assets, harsher jail sentences, no parole, no house arrest, no cushy club fed, ostracizing, automatic barring from any public office or job of trust, etc...

We’ve got to make sure that the penalties of doing business with corrupt corporations are so terrifying that they’re too afraid to go along with corporate pressure.

They work for us. Not Bezos or Musk. Once that’s made clear again, we get back the upper hand. Real, meaningful change can be made.

We’ve got to stop acting like we can afford their corruption. Because we can’t. Any excess in taxes that can be made today needs to be set aside in trust for the coming generations to rebuild and weather climate change.

We can’t let them play fast and loose with our money and our future, our childrens' futures anymore.
