(11,678 posts)NO 'system' is going to fix this.
Until we remove (or, at least heavily restrict) capitalism as a societal model, anything we do to try and correct this will fail and things will just happen again.
The Constitution is not at fault. Without those trying to implement (and corrupt) it, it is just a piece of paper.
WE are the power, and WE have to make things change.
But, since the programming worked, we do not seem to be worried about the very thing that is causing all of this.
Just as the programming has convinced us that our only option is to be good little peons and shut up about our suffering. We were not born anointed, so we do not count. No one seems willing to change this.
All of this will remain as long as we keep listening to those whose very position of wealth and power depends on the delusion they created, and falling for their propaganda due to their having most of the wealth in the nation under their control.
It is sickening to watch people destroy themselves solely because some rich person told them that there is no other way.
