the obscene disparity between rich and poor. R
What disparity ?
Why ignore that Americans make more than ever, have more benefits from employers, and the state than ever before.
That's some false narrative being spun there.
It also ignores that there is always been a disparity between skilled, and unskilled labor.
It also ignores the FACT that millions of middle class invested in Wall Street to increase their standard of living.
It also ignores thanks to the SOCIALISTS that checking accounts,savings,cds,money markets pay SNIP thesedays.
That's another thing Americans used to build wealth.
And we sure can't forget FIAT currency, and the endless printing of money that devalues it.
I love it when people blame business and Wall Street.
When progressives/socialists., and been the leading creators of that 'disparity'.
And what happens when the environment is no longer sustainable?

People used to adjust to the environment to meet their needs.
Now they're adjusting the environment to suit their needs.

I'm laughing my ass off at the poor millenials.
If socialist Bern gets elected, then there is nothing stopping me (a boomer) from retiring early with my savings, and living off the social programs the baristas and wee, tiny millenials will be paying 60% of their wages to support.
Now imagine me times a few million.
The millenials are going to be sucking wind.
hahahahahahahahahahahaha

Socialists long ago identified the conditions that favor them, which is why they cause disparity then use it to their advantage to try to further their cause.
The sheeple are supporting their suppressors when they embrace Socialism.

That 'democratic' socialist define it.
They keep adding, without a thought or care in the world of how to pay for all their little hearts desire.
Remember now In a 'democracy' the mob just loves voting themselves things. They know they can't pay for.

That's cause grandma one day had a rude awakening and saw just how 'safe' that so called social security safety net socialists gave us.
And has to keep working because that pittances from the state after paying in to for over 30 years isn't even close enough to live on.

Then look to the cause of job loss and wage loss.
Don't piss away a perfectly good system for socialism just because some assholes tied to screw the economy!

Socialism isn't sustainable.
See the law of diminishing returns.
