It's not going to address it at all after the first week because nobody plans to stop the parasites from stealing it We know they're going to steal it because we built a system that makes them legally obligated to extract more profit by any means necessary Impoverishing a nation buying wars etc

Respectfully, I disagree. I think a functioning safety net would a) literally save lives and b) demonstrate to the body politic that gov't can be used for good things. I understand your anger but why so much despair? What solutions do you suggest?

We systemically incentivise and greatly reward obscene greed and disregard for life we give power to the absolute worst humanity has to offer And we do so intentionally There is no reform for a system that is rotten to the core youtu.be/01wcUXRqG78?...

I don't disagree with how you describe the problems, but I do take issue with the perceived impossibility of solving them.

I didn't say it is impossible. It's just impossible under capitalism

"We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words." -Ursula Le Guin
