Most men in your position solve this problem by voting straight-ticket GOP and deciding that it's somehow all Obama's fault. it's not like he hasn't made a career out of doing things no one wants and blaming someone else. Or lying about whats in laws he is telling congress to pass. There are no good politicians retard.

There are no good politicians retard. This is how you should start, OP. But you should also start muttering darkly about closing the border, soon you'll find yourself very concerned about the constitutionality of the inheritance tax in spite of the fact that you meet income qualifications to receive food stamps.

ArbitraryC posted:Has anyone made a good breakdown of what % of poor people's income goes to taxes compared to what % of rich people's income does? It's obvious stuff like sin taxes are going to have a much bigger effect on the poor than the wealthy but I dunno to what extent that's been quantified. well you also get like environmental "taxes" on gasoline (charging the producer for having to use more expensive manufacturing processes), any similar "tax" on farmers or transportation companies. Taxes on people who make plastics and other materials for consumer good taxes on coal in places that only have coal power plants etc. All that poo poo trickles down but isn't considered a real tax even though everyone has to pay for it and it hits the poor the hardest.

Profiting off natural resources is so weird and such an obvious scam for rich people to get richer. Obviously gathering and processing needs to be paid for but the idea that someone can sorta just own something they had no part in making is weird, those resources should belong to the country and the people of that country. It'd be like letting someone buy the rights to the water cycle or something.

Welcome to the green industry. I don't know what planet you're living on cause it's not Earth bro. Just because YOUR sidewalk gets swept doesn't mean that the oil refineries dumping waste into the Niger River are going away. I blame the popularity of 'trickle-down theory'. Rich people don't spend (the same % of) the money they earn and they definitely don't use it to create jobs, because why should they? There are literally no incentives for them to spend any more money than they need to. But people can be persuaded to vote based on bad information. Economies need to preserve some levels of inefficiency to prevent inequality or else the middle class dies/goes into massive debt like here in Canada.

radiatinglines posted:That's some crazy bullshit, man in the 70's when there was no epa and we had rivers that would spontaneously light on fire. In the 90's we pretty much cleaned up most of our manufacturing to the point we weren't really hurting anything too much, and we got rid of LA's smog. Then we had a politician pay some scientist to make a graph that showed rising temperatures and make a movie saying the earth would end if we didn't make manufacturers ( a mostly republican industry) the world would end immediately after an election cycle. Democrats control all universities in america except a handful that study and fund global warming. Democrats control the board that decides what scientist get funding. Democrats use the new information from the global warmong studies they funded, giving money to the people they wanted to have it to give 0% interest loans to their freinds, and then take donations from their friends to use for running political campaigns. Then invested in green energy, and then did everything they could to kill all non green businesses because they were the most likely to donate to republicans. sounds crazy, but you'll notice all the big companies and corporations that democrats, hate are chosen by democratic politicains to be a point of focus because said companies donate republican. this isn't crazy talk it's what these shitlords do, and then they just say something else and people believe them.

What if the combined bottom and middle classes just started stealing stuff. I mean, like crazy. Stealing, or breaking stuff. Like a massive guerilla campaign to promote the idea of just going into stores, grocery stores, walmarts, best buys, A&F, Apple, Dillards, etc, and ruining or stealing products. If these bottom classes can not affect change via political channels, or peaceful civil disobedience stuff like Occupy, what about hitting the captains of industry in the wallet? Sure one pair of ruined $80 jeans is nothing, but a hundred? Or a thousand? More?

I'm serious. Wealth may not trickle down, but Loss will definitely trickle up. A lot of... More radical thinkers out there cling to their rifles and prepare for the day they have to take on the gubernmint. In truth, the powers that be are likely much more prepared and capable of handling such armed rebels than we may want to believe. In turn, consider a molotov at the local new car dealership. Thousands of dollars of damage. Lol, I kind of sound a little crazy, but unfortunately, this is really all i can think of as an effective and feasible means to make any sort of change, speaking as a disenfranchised person. In order to negotiate, you need to have leverage. At this time, based on all those graphs and charts and articles posted, it does not seem we have very much if any leverage.
