      The problem is that if it doesn’t come from them then there will be no change.

        General strike. Nobody shows up to work worldwide.

        That’s not true. Labor laws today are much, much better than 100 years ago, and not because billionaires decided to be good.

          No, it’s because when taking wasn’t getting shit done and the owners used cops to get violent to force them back to work, workers got violent right back, but they stopped too soon. The owning class should have been hunted down and eaten right then.

        This is the fundamental issue. Our society is set up so that there is a negative correlation between the probability someone will have control to direct society and their suitability to do so.
