    We pay them taxes but we can’t hold them accountable… Even when we get a “W” like obamacare, it was really an L for vast majority of workers.

    People should lobby and tell their parasite how they feel but in reality hurting profits is way more effective

      You’re definitely not wrong that hurting profits is good leverage. It might actually be the best tool we have

      I don’t remember where I heard it recently, but we really need to bring back the slogan “no taxation without representation”

      Millennials barely have representation and gen z has maybe one representative. The US was legit founded by mostly young people. It’s nuts to see the contrast to today. It’s not even exaggerating to say this nation hates it’s younger citizens

      Edit: grammars

        Until younger people start rattling boomers and their owners cages, nothing will change.

        Protests don’t work, we already saw what happened with covid and ocupy. Anything centralized gets taken over by feds and gutted.

        Only practical solution see now is to decentralize, deny profits to corpos, deny legitimacy to two party regime, ask for raises and switch jobs for raises.

        Them shit post about it until enough of us wake and start fighting back.

        If people got other ideas, I am all ears BTW.

        Just spit balling tactics that I use
