This isn't necessarily new, but it's gotten worse. I think we are past the point of capitalism providing any "good". You can argue we needed it for a bit to breed engenuity and creation, but at this point we are just making shit worse with our advancements.

No, the rest of us aren't on the payroll. In their eyes, we're expendable, nameless chum that greases the wheels of their cash machine.

I've likened it to Epcott and we all work there and instead of it being a single city it's the entire country :) We get paid in Epcott Bucks. We don't own anything.
Being self-employed or otherwise owning your job and its success, having access to good healthcare, owning your own property, and making sure your loved ones have a way to protect them in case they need emergency assistance immediately when you arent there: Easy or otherwise affordable access to all of that is about all people need from their government to break free from the hold of capitalism. Debt is just another form of slavery.
