"Do you ask what is the proper limit to wealth? It is, first, to have what is necessary, and, second, to have what is enough."
Seneca’s idea was that wealth should be limited to what is needed and enough - something no billionaire seems to understand.
Understanding must be forced.

Every politician who gets elected to the house or sentate or the presidency should be forced to do an LSD trip with a recording of Timothy Leary and guided to understand that other people exist too.

RFK Jr would just say he's building immunity or w/e the fuck. I bet Commander Brain Worm orders RFK Jr to wear a bone necklace of rot under his shirt so it doesn't smell the putrid rancid rot of Trump.
Dr. Oz will start selling rotbones soon enough as a cure to measles instead of vaccines.

I’m asking ICE to curl up and die like a salted slug.
I’m asking for everyone who directed them to spend the rest of their natural lives in prison.
And I’m asking for every quisling Democrat to walk the earth with ceaseless and unavoidable scorn.
Those are my demands.

Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable.
We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow.
Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

The fascists will not stop and are only going to get more violent. The Democrats have betrayed us.
It’s on us to stop this. We have to carry out a general strike and boycott even if we’re not ready. We have to kill this system before it kills us.

The Democratic Party will either be taken over by leftists with no relationship to corporate donors, a desire to fight fascism, and a relationship with the base or there will be a new party altogether. That’s the situation and the party apparatchik who think otherwise are fooling themselves.

If anything an inquiry needs to be made into that Republican's hard drive. Shit, all of their hard drives.

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.

Unless enough people understand what is driving this, change will often come too slow and too late.
I've tried talking until I'm hoarse and my head is throbbing to people I know and while they agree... The line is always "well they have no chance, so I'll vote for the safer option" which is... Sad.

As a general rule the constituents are barely responsible for what their representatives have done. The deals the elite power brokers make are secret after all.
In the current form of this Union your only power is to try to support alternatives in primaries, but the machine is cold and uncaring.

So Republicans convinced the working class they were on the same side while robbing them blind of the services their parents fought for, and their grandparents died for.
Meanwhile the democrats went after the elites and the intelligentsia, abandoning the working class base.
Now here we are.

After Johnson, the Democrats sold their souls for corporate backers, lobbyists, and the whims of corporate America and helped usher in the American Oligarchy just as much as the Republicans did.
When the Overton window shifted right, the Democrats followed. They sold out their constituents.
