yep, Bhairitu, my food bill per week used to be about $100. Now it's twice
that! So glad I only eat chicken fish and eggs each only once a week. How do
families survive?!

Yes, I agree that a larger safety net is necessary, and the bucks for that
should come from the ultra wealthy who shirk their national responsibility, by
evading taxes. Otherwise, we will continue to see the middle class disappear,
and be headed for a second revolution, eventually.
Food prices are climbing very high. The pound of butter I paid $2.99 for at
Trader Joes the last time cost me $3.99 the other day. That's a 33% increase.
I don't eat beef but the price of hamburger is over $4 now. The riots in
Greece were because people could no longer afford food not because they were
economic experts. Only a matter of time until riots begin here and the
government is trying to be proactive but just the wrong way.
Part of the issue, is that corporate titans are seen as great visionaries
and geniuses, instead of simply being true to their charter, which is to turn
as big a profit, as possible, resources and populations be damned. We need real
leaders, not Warren Buffet and a bunch of unethical salesmen, running this
country.
But being in tech also you know the corporate titans are not the visionaries.
They buy small companies started by people who are visionary or accidentally
(more often than not) created something visionary.

One of the ways of doing it would be guaranteed annual income. That's a
safety net and keeps people from becoming desperate. In fact the crime
reduction it might produce might pay for it. You can look up the different
countries implementing it and see how they are going to pay for it. Otherwise
limit how much money anyone can have because we're seeing that billionaires are
mentally ill and don't deserve the power they wield.
Americans are so brainwashed with a Tarzan like "capitalism good, socialism
bad" meme that its difficult to get any decent change and it'll just send us
back to the middle ages where there are two classes the extremely wealthy and
the extremely poor. Don't stand for it!
Nothing brings this out more than than the holiday season or "Crassmust".

Yes, but I don't know how that would be possible. This area I now live in,
was a paradise for the natives, for 3,000 years - no inter-tribal warfare, and
absolute respect for territorial boundaries. But, they had nothing, and lived
entirely off the land. I like my tech, and modern life, and not sure how that
would happen, without monetary rewards.

Peoplesure are desperate for making money so they come up with their weirdest

what a nicer world this would be if people didn't have to worry about making
money.
