The people who get rich, get rich by charging to much for products others make and services others provide and paying the people who made the products and provided the services too little.
Large profits prove they paid to little and charged too much.
It proves the unfairness of the system.

They say the private sector is more efficient, but more efficient at what?
The private sector is more efficient at taking the value people create through their work and giving it to a relatively small number of privileged people.

It doesn't matter what the truth is. If enough Americans will only accept what liars tell them the politics will not change.
Unless enough people get serious about knowing what the truth is, our democracy is in deep trouble.

There is only one truth. There is no such thing as an alternate truth.
There are only facts. There are no such thing as alternate facts.
Either you know the truth or you don't.
No amount of agreement can make a thing true.

How do we know that MAGA is fascist? They label everyone who opposes them as AntiFa (anti-fascist). If anyone who opposes them can be summarily labeled AntiFa then are they implying they are fascists.
If they call their opposition anti-fascists, they are calling themselves fascist!

Delusion
It's when people all latch on to the same lies and defend those lies vigorously so they never have to face the fact they have lost touch with reality.

How much of the value of your work is taken by other people?
How much of your income comes from other people's work.
People who take from other people's work should be taxed heavily.
People who create more value than they take home shouldn't pay taxes.

Conservative logic:
A worker does work that creates $100 worth of value for the company. The worker gets $7.25 for their work, but they should be able to pay them less.
They want more taxes to come from the $7.25 so the company can pay less on the other $92.75 from the workers labor.

Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years.
Meanwhile, the six largest health insurers raked in more than $31 billion in net income last year.
Still not sure if we need Medicare for All?

Trumpstein is turning all our trading partners against us.
Many are turning to China and India to replace us as leader of the world trading order.
China and India are gaining stature as America becomes weaker and more isolated.

I believe that the people who take a larger share of the value from the economy should pay for infrastructure that supports having an economy.
Consumption taxes (VAT, sales tax, tariffs) shift more of the tax burden on the the workers who ADD value so the people who TAKE value can pay less.

Government power is our power as Americans. That is why the wealthy elite want to destroy it. Government is the only thing that keeps them from taking ever greater advantage of the rest of us. Government is the only thing that makes them have any concern for the harm they may do to others.
