      Hmmm, this system needs blood to run and it keeps increasing the consumption rate. Oh well, more blood will fix it.

        Marxism is the guardian angel of Capitalism? Vote for National Socialism instead?

        What's their angel of attack other than anti-semitism. If they're claiming to be socialist while also bashing Marxism by saying it defends Capitalism isn't it kind of self discrediting? Idk not a Nazi propagandist.

            Yeah looking back at it I probably could have gathered that given about 3 seconds and the phrase "Fascism is capitalism in decay" but here we are.

            Appreciate it though.

    Looks like theyre consent manufacturing for some level of redistribution. The capitalist class is noticing that fascism and leftism is rising at a very fast pace, they were waiting for this level of unrest the whole time before they would do anything. Still, would be interesting to see how this would play out given the record low profit rate and increasing competition from China.

      If by interesting you mean "Can't wait for ww3!" then...... Yeah.

    Normally "we didn't need a study for this" is the brainlet take but, holy shit, yeah, we know wealth inequality went up, not down. What could they possibly have studied here?

    What I find weird is, most liberals and a decent amount of conservatives even seem to be in a place of openly admitting this is the case.

    Why bother trying to spread “trickle down” when “hurts middle class consumers” has the same effect but is harder to prove?
