    I dont think 10% of the population is able to vote for decades neoliberal policies that erode society

    Its easy to blame billionaires and the 1%, but we ultimately live in a democracy (or at least used to)… look at the results of every election and tell me that only 10% of the population voted for this

      Most of us are nothing more than cattle being herded and are very skillfully tricked into thinking a certain way. You give the population too much credit. I should know…I’m one of those cattle. The only exception to this is when things get too tight and there is too much suffering and all hope is lost then a mob gets formed and a revolution starts. That’s when the people of any particular generation have the most power.
