What galls me is that we have no means of recourse really.
The minimum wage has been stuck at $7 for almost two decades, and 2/3 of the states use that baseline. Unions have become stronger by necessity, which is great, as prices for everything from food, to gas, to rent have surged and our Federal Government has done nothing meaningful to stop it. Workers are cast as lazy or crybabies for wanting the most basic positive work-life balance. And, short of being a billionaire or being willing to commit a terrorist act (which I 100% do not endorse) the individual is stuck cutting themselves down to the bone in order to survive, even with a full-time job.
In a society where healthcare and housing are purchased at market rather than a right, financial exploitation is an overt act of violence against each and every one of us.
Violence begets violence. However, a lack of a sufficiently violent response to an unjustified violent act begets repetition and escalation of that violent act.
Guillotines.
Our means of recourse is the guillotine. That we haven't hauled a guillotine to the door of a billionaire and demanded he reduce his wealth to $999,999,999 is a travesty.
The longer we refrain from using the figurative guillotines of law and order to bring these robber barons into line, the more likely we will need to resort to literal guillotines.
