Elites spent the entirety of the 20th century whipping up nationalism as a response to the rising popularity of socialism in a bid to maintain their privileged status. US elites like the Koch’s, Adelson, Mercers, Uihlein’s, etc. are currently doing exactly this through their dark money projects.PurpleJ said:The elite love socialism. Tax the shit out of the middle and upper middle class that are trying to take their spot on top. Buy the votes of the poor with "free" shit that is paid for via reduced earning potential and job creation. That's been the game for years over there.
The Spanish republicans and I shared a laugh at the prospect that societal elites side with leftist causes.

Last I checked Soros was an elite and he pays for socialism shit. It's not going to happen here in America. There are literally people out there who would go to war to prevent it. Lots of them.HardlyClothed said:

US GDP distribution is not concentrated at the top. Check the facts. The “there is no middle class anymore” line is a lie.HardlyClothed said:GDP per capita is not a good tool for this comparison. You have to factor in distribution of wealth and how robust the social safety net is.
In the US GDP distribution is concentrated at the top and our social programs are severely lacking. Most Euros have much more equal distribution of wealth and comprehensive safety nets. This in addition to much stronger workers rights which balance the power of capital and labor. -
