Wealth inequality will destroy America.
(lemmy.nz)
This cartoon from The Seattle Times illustrates how America's economic pizza is actually sliced per capita, highlighting the massive disparity between the Top 1%, the merely wealthy, the upper middle class, and the lower 50%.
Affecting change*. If you're gonna criticize people from doing little things to shake up the system at least be literate.
Some people can't do more. Some people don't have the means to do more. People on disability don't have the financial means to do more. So little things like spending less at mega corps vs supporting local is a little thing they can do. I won't expect someone with severe PTSD who is on permanent disability like my actual partner is from trying to start a unionized business. But they can certainly try and spend less at the major grocery corporations.
But I'm curious. What are you doing to change society, other than vomiting bullshit on the Internet and claiming the high ground?
I'm not criticizing people for doing little things.
I'm criticizing people for over inflating those little things. I'm criticizing people for telling themselves and others, those little things are going to "shake the system".
