The only thing we need to bring back to get them what they miss, is tax rates for corporations and the wealthiest.
It’s just they’ve been manipulated into thinking that was the one bad part and all the shitty social issues were what made their lives better.
Hell, even the Democratic party if today doesn’t want those tax rates, because some of that now goes to donations to them.
Both parties fight over social issues, and refuse to do anything about taxes.
So the people donating to both parties, never even have a chance to lose.
They bought the system, and it’s irrational to pretend they haven’t. Nothing will ever be fixed in America till we get money out of politics and tax the wealthy. It’s like trying to save the environment by recycling and paper straws.
Sure “every little bit helps” but if we ignore all the big stuff and only do the little bits, we ain’t gonna change enough
Well… there are actually a lot of things we could’ve taken from the old days. Atmosphere without excessive co2 for instance
Also a planet without excessive billionaires. Somehow the modern tech moguls managed to make the robber barons sound tame in comparison
A planet with even one billionaire is excessive I dare say.

Not with 8 billion people in the world…
