Ok. Let's try a capitalism based solution based on price action. Let's ok our legislators doubling their salaries under our form of capitalism and they agree to upgrade infrastructure and rebalance our economy?
Are you on the right-wing? Why are you eschewing Capitalism.STFU you moron!

How droll. You seem like a troll. Right-wingers only know how to parrot propaganda and rhetoric regarding capitalism in socialism threads instead of ever coming up with better solutions at lower cost. Stereotypical of the right-wing.Because I like capitalism. I like kids to be able to have lemonade stands in their neighborhoods. Whatcha think about that? Fuck the county/city business license laws and all that!

You're such a pinhead you have no idea how fucked up Congress is. Rick Scott, the former governor of my state, got up in there and looked around and said "Hey! This thing's broken."
And it is. Constituents don't get represented in Congress, the companies that pay lobbyists to bribe Congress do. It's time for a convention of The States.

You think the GOP is capitalist. Funny.

Canada's "Freedom Convoy" started three weeks ago, with truckers converging on Ottawa to protest a law requiring that they be vaccinated to come back into their own country from the United States.
Given that well over 80 percent of the truckers are already vaccinated, what exactly are they protesting?
As one reporter who talked to dozens of demonstrators put it, it's less about mandates per se and more about "a sense that things will never go back to normal, a sense that they are being ganged up on by the government, the media, Big Tech, Big Pharma."
The trucker protests remind me of the Tea Party in 2009, Occupy Wall Street in 2011, the Women's March in 2017, and Black Lives Matter protests after the police killings of Michael Brown in 2014 and George Floyd in 2020.
Whatever specific event ignited each of those movements, they all quickly took on greater proportions and expressed a vast, generalized anger not simply at overspending, bailouts, income inequality, sexism, and police brutality but at governments and cultural elites that seems at best indifferent to ordinary people's lives and at worst downright malevolent.
These movements typify what former CIA analyst and current visiting fellow at the Mercatus Center Martin Gurri wrote about in The Revolt of the Public and the Crisis of Authority in the New Millennium.
Governments have lost the trust and confidence of the people they supposedly serve.
Discuss.
