Does anyone actually have the tools to fix capitalism from stealing from the poor and making a few billionaires even richer?
I donāt think I doā¦
I feel that there is an underlying moral problem in society that causes the rich to always exploit the poor. It feels like if you were to shuffle people around and pick a new set of rich people, said people would be almost equally likely to screw over their fellow man. If society was more moral in general, this exploitation would be reduced.
Iād say it would parallel the results from the Stanford Prison experiment. Give one group of people everything, including the power to decide what happens to people in the out-group, and they will inevitably become hostile towards the out group.
Morality schmorality, we need universal healthcare, daycare, a progressive tax system, and much more. Once society is equitable to all, then all have equal opportunity to behave āmorally.ā

All of these things are maintained by humans. There is no perfect structure that can keep everyone ālockedā to act in favor of the structure, whether it is through surveillance, bureaucracy or punishments. In any system, a subset of the participants will at some point have leeway to put a small dent to the system. Some systems are more resistant to self-destruction than others, but none are immune to it due to our inherent ability to choose between right and wrong. Therefore, evil systems can always be defeated, and good systems can always fall.
Most people.
Fuck you, be kind to yourself, dipshit.
