Starmer authored legal opinions and marched in protest against the Iraq War following the 2003 invasion of Iraq, stating in 2015 that he believed that the war was "not lawful under international law because there was no UN resolution expressly authorising it" This happens when you watch too much right wing propaganda.

To be fair, most people who live "paycheck to paycheck" are actually not poor. The statistics included those who choose to put money in savings and investment. In reality, half of Americans have about 3 months of living expenses in cash. But that's still worrying because that money has been depleting in the past year.

It’s America’s actual monetary system, and increasingly more other countries as well. It hasn’t been capitalism in two centuries. And what it is now is just corporatist extremism. One company is more important and has more political sway than 10000 starving and homeless human beings. It’s psychopathic…and 80 million people who don’t have half a grain of rice ran happily to vote for more of it. And tens of millions who could have negated it with their votes stayed at home and did nothing because the corporate messaging followed Bannon’s playbook to tell them their votes were meaningless, or one single issue they were being bombarded with social media messaging was more important than rampant poverty, ecology and climate, rights for women and LGBTQ people, the thousands of combined years of effort people undertook to get those rights, supporting Ukraine so other European nations could have peace of mind knowing we had their backs if they were invaded, the possibility of getting new Supreme Court justices to renew the Voting Rights Act, undo Citizens United and restore women’s reproductive rights, and a whole host of other issues that mattered more than anything right now. The public is hypnotized by evil and incapable of recognizing, let alone acting in their own interests.

Some people aren't mega wealthy because they need it or can use it. They accumulate wealth to prevent other people from being able to afford essential requirements - sometimes food, shelter or heat . That's power. Power may be derived from the application of austerity. Some are more attracted to power than money & finance is simply a tool to achieve that end.

What also has to be pointed out is wealth inequality stagnates the economy, marginal propensity to consume is the economic fact that the richer you are the less percentage of your money you spend in the economy. M usk only needs one loaf of bread after all for example. But if you gave 100 pounds to the poorest in society they would spend it in the economy straight away. Savings, taking the money off-shore and putting money in the stock market is taking money out of the economy (the stock market just moves money around, unless it's the original purchase the money does not go to the company, therefore does nothing).

Very clearly explained. I’m 58 years old. There’s always been rich people of course in my lifetime. Maybe someone who was very successful as an entertainer or they had built up their own business. They worked hard for it no doubt, maybe working long hours. Many still do of course. No one minds that. What’s got out of hand is the disparity now and the seemingly injustice of it all. It’s really gone crazy. The ordinary citizen seems to be increasingly squeezed by paying more for what they need, yet some companies and their owners are profiting massively from this exploitation. This is especially true of energy companies and the like. Basic necessities that we all need and therefore it’s a forced purchase in a sense. Apart from taxing the wealthy properly, all essential services; water, gas, electric, public transport should be State owned and run for the benefit of a country’s citizens.

One of the issues with this much wealth that doesn't get talked about enough is how, if you're sitting on top of 1 billion dollars, that's 1 billion dollars out of circulation. For wealth to work, it needs to be in circulation, so people can buy from businesses, businesses can pay employees, and those employees can go buy from other businesses, and it profits the community. If someone has 1 billion dollars, just sat in an account, that's not going anywhere.

No words could express how right this guy is and thanks for highlighting it to you audience but the big problem is your followers already now this and main stream media will never point their audience towards the ugly truth.

It just goes to show that the UK is not a Christian country; otherwise the rice grains would be much more evenly spread. Perhaps someone would tell us what sort of country the UK has become.

Nah it would still be inequality, I don't think any Christian nation ever had socialism. Otherwise England would be fairer than Scotland and you just don't see that. Consider how Christian it was. It's easy to wave away by saying that is gods plan.

There are so many good communicators on YT/Tiktok/Instagram and we need more, on a variety of topics. It's a double edged sword, as people can spread misinformation and disinformation, and can also distort things with cult of personality, but if the good stuff gets the views, there's always a chance to get some good debate.

The first response from them to taking more from them will be - "Well, what's in it for me?". That's what you're up against. In their mind, they defeated the plebs in rising to such a position, and they tell themselves it came from a superior work ethic. In their mind they won at life and everyone else lost, end of. Only the rare view care a damn about how orhers get by, especially if they are employing them. "Maximum profit, minimal outgoings or we'll set up in Cambodia instead" is the threat always rolled out when under pressure

The Walton family who owns Walmart are the richest family in the US with a net worth of over £350 Billion. The could have shared 10% of that wealth, still be unimaginably wealthy, made food in the US significantly cheaper and wages significantly higher over the decades that walmart has being running. This could have made almost all families lives in the US better.

The government needs to start taxing the wealthiest in society more & be made to pay their fair share , it is obscene that such a few people have these vast amounts of money while millions are in poverty starving & using foodbanks !

If a monkey hoarded more bananas than it could eat, while most of the other monkeys starved, scientists would study that monkey to figure out what the hell was wrong with it. When humans do it, we put them on the cover of Forbes.
