Mamdani, the presumptive Democratic nominee to be the next mayor of New York and a self-identified democratic socialist, said Sunday billionaires contribute to inequality.
They could just stop impeding progress and let the working class have things like healthcare and a living wage. Guess that’s too much to ask and they would prefer guillotines?
These people could still be fabulously wealthy and do anything they want for their entire lives while also ALLOWING for a healthy middle class and things like universal healthcare and living wages.
I capitalized “allowing” because I think it’s absurd we’re living under their domination and I think it’s time we forcibly take what we need from them. The time for being amicable is over.
Trickle Down Economics was a huge success for the Aristocrats, and a disaster for the working class. Obviously, they want to keep the system that has worked so well for them, but it is unsustainable, and it is coming to an end. They are facing two choices:
Trickle UP Economics, in which more money is given to the workers, who will then spend it, stimulating the economy. Every time this has been tried (such as during Covid), it was wildly successful. The money eventually makes its way into the hands of the Sociopathic Oligarchs and Transnational Corporations anyway, but at least it greases the cogs of the economy on its journey upwards.
That would be the best way to handle the economy for everybody. The workers have more spending power, and the rich get richer. Everybody’s happy.
OR
Robin Hood Economics, which is “Take from the Rich, and give to the Poor.” This usually follows a brutally violent rebellion in which the wealthy do not prevail. It is usually very uncomfortable for them and their families. The wealthy would rather avoid this one.
Of course, they want to keep on going with the plan that has made them wealthy, but we have to show them that the gravy train has come to an end, and we will not be indulging their hoarding mental illness any longer.
I’ve always been anti-capitalist but in a Big Sean song he said “money is the greatest drug” and I hadn’t really thought about it that simply, they really are just addicted to wealth and it warps the brain. The dynastic capitalist families have encouraged this delusion for generations, further entrenching their alternate worldview.

I prefer Piñata Economics.
Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable.
A healthy and educated working class is better at recognizing and confronting exploitation.
Keeping us down lets them rise to aristocracy.

It’s not money it’s power (of which money is a manifestation).
Power corrupts.
There’s evidence that being wealthy does indeed change your brain
