We are losing the struggle for economic justice. While 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, the gap between the 1% and everyone else is growing wider. We must take on Oligarchy. https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/2024-billionaires

I heard a rumor that you are going to support RFK's nomination. Such an act will end my decades long admiration and overall cheering for you. Please don't let RFK ruin your legacy and break the hearts of those of us who supported you.
WE ARE LOSING THE FIGHT FOR FAIRNESS. WHILE 60% OF AMERICANS ARE STRUGGLING WITH MONEY, THE RICH KEEP GETTING RICHER. WE NEED TO FIGHT AGAINST THE RICH CONTROLLING EVERYTHING.
1929 is coming. Eventually they'll actually have it all, and when they do, what will they do then? There's nowhere else but to implode. That crash will be bigger than anything we've ever seen and their wealth along with everybody else's will be useless.
Things will get worse and worse. They will take over media, they will use military against protesters, it will be harder to fight back and even to know what is true. It is easier to resist at the beginning than at the end.
Moreover, the oligarchs' protégé DJT & his SNS-barking doggy are trying to spread right-wing radicalism by putting pressure on democratic governments/supporting right-wing radical separatism in EU, weakening the union, thereby aligning themselves with th enemies of EU/West.
This is very true, we must confront the Broligarchs in their attempt to transfer wealth from Americans to themselves. However, Bernie, please do NOT support RFK jr. to lead HHS, this would be a dangerous disservice to American healthcare.
In the past, these injustices have been settled through revolutions. It takes the power of united mobs to overwhelm the extreme strength of the filthy rich. That's why the billionaires have done all they can to create division among the 99% of us. We have the numbers. They have the money.
Mr. Sanders: How about placing a small tax on "robots", which would include automation like ATMs, self-serve gas pumps and AI-technology that eliminates human employment-to pay for social programs like Social Security, Universal Healthcare, Disability, and even Universal Basic Income ?
Do you have a DNC chair in mind who will actually speak truth to the power of large corporate donors and redirect the Democratic Party in such a way that the common person and average worker will believe the democrats support the majority of Americans? This seems like the crucial first step.
They elected the billionaire Senator. They chose the wealth disparity. And then he filled the cabinet with billionaire nominees. We have a suicidal guy in a Tesla complaining about wealth disparity and calling on his fellows to follow Donald and Musk. They aren’t the sharpest but they voted.
