Whomever supports the idea that the rich should get richer and the poor should get fucked doesn't get that a rising tide lifts all boats. Money loses it's value if it's hoarded by billionaires. It doesn't take an economist to know that our success or demise depends on our collective success.

“A sustained campaign of anti-migrant rhetoric is fuelling a growing cesspool of racism, including against international and ethnic minority nursing staff, without whom our health and care system would simply cease to function.”
