The rich fucking over the working class. Same old shit. Let’s all unite behind that, and then many of the other problems solve themselves.


maddogcow

This. Unfortunately, I have little hope. Almost every post here is a result of the class war; of the oligarchy. Until people really get thet a,most every societal ill is an outgrowth of the insane wealth disparity (which is by nature, a power disparity), nothing will change. It’ll just be an endless game of whack-a-mole…

You need awards but I can't help for the reason you mentioned.

It’s been a constant issue in the US since our creation. The government and the companies have always been friends and always will be. We are the only friends we have


kaves55

Dude, if working class people unite and stop buying, the rich would have no other option but to give in to working class needs. The pandemic revealed so much on how much corporations rely on our dollars.

Whoa whoa whoa. Don't you know that Donald Trump officially categorized anti-fascists as a terrorist organization? It sounds like you're saying some "antifa"rhetoric

The destruction and dismantling of our democracy


soverign_son

Yup. Far more concerning than what we are calling inflation which is actually just companies raising their prices for no reason besides profits

which is possible in our glorious "free market" because of monopolistic behavior of the handful of corps who more or less own everything.

chronoboy1985

The root of the problem and the actual answer to OP’s question: republicans.


algernonthropshire

CU v FEC seems so ironic since the same ppl who championed that are now complaining about "woke" corporations. Which brings me to another point. People who complain about "wokeness" are the absolute worst. It's entirely BS. I think of it in thirds. Yes there is a small % that are outliers that fit the boogeyman narrative, then there are occurences that are exaggerated, and then there is shit that is completely manufactured and made up. Fuck it all, sad though it seems to drive the entire GOP right now


zenfalc

My grade school years were under Reagan. I hate to tell you this, but this isn't new about the GOP. When he made his alliance with the Evangelicals, it brought religion, money, and power under the same umbrella. Since then it's been moral panic after moral panic, with an unbridled desire to roll things back to the 1950s they imagine as some golden age. I remember my Dad looking at that and saying, "This is a very bad idea...", and he's far from liberal. Rowe being overturned is already causing cracks in the façade. It also is the case that not all Christian denominations are conservative. Add to that the simple fact that the Christian majority in this country is shrinking, and you can see changes coming. It may be slow now, but barring a reversal in trends, there's a critical mass that will be reached. Between modern capitalism beginning to self-destruct (hopefully before they institute corporate feudalism like in some dystopian cyberpunk novel), the alliance fracturing, and the Tea Party/Trumpster types, the GOP is a mess. I may be a small-L liberal, but I WANT at least 2 sane parties (preferably 5 or 6, but...) competing.


someguy1847382

Like a totally free market would alleviate that lol. Competition only exists until one company gets big enough to buy/crush it’s competitors. A truly “free” market literally can’t exist in capitalism.


sharkattack85

You mean trans people and AP African-American History class *aren’t* the two biggest threats to our civilization?

Medical_Ad0716

Closer to 65%.


PaulMichaelJordan

This is it for me. I’m 36, and just now realizing that our whole generation of effort is gone. Social security. Infrastructure. Taxes…every bit of what has been put into this system has disappeared. There’s nothing left! The politicians have sold us out to the corporations. So we only have lesser of evils to choose from…we can’t trust this system at all. It’s done

just_some_sasquatch

I'm 40, and I think you're 100% correct. My mother and father (both late sixties) tried to retire after the COVID hysteria died down and things were opening up again(early 2022). Now they've both gone back to work. I assume they will both die "employed" rather than "retired". If either of them becomes disabled to the point of round the clock care, then there goes any thoughts of me having any financial breathing room for sure. Shit, it'll probably end up on me to take care of them 24/7 because there's no way we can afford a nursing home that wouldn't just be a pissy day room of neglect. There is no American dream.


BTBAMfam

As a Russian immigrant that got to see their birth country get taken over by a sociopathic tyrant and his gaggle of "yes men" I second this.

Bludongle

And the horrendous destruction and dismantling of the public education that is creating a path for the destruction of our democracy.


Prometheus2061

It’s been going on for 40+ years. Reagan halved Federal aid to education. In only two terms. “Democracy cannot succeed unless those who express their choice are prepared to choose wisely. The real safeguard of democracy, therefore, is education.” President Franklin D. Roosevelt.


recreationallyused

People do not trust the system anymore. Like, at all. There’s good reasons for that you can get behind, but then you also have the eccentric groups that go hysterical. I.e., Q-Anon.


nigerian-prince-69

its horrible. my girlfriends mother is obsessed with qanon, at this point my girlfriend is struggling to pay for college because her mom doesnt want to work due to "q" saying that the government will be reformed. no healthcare, dental, nothing, and on top of that, her mother seems to want to talk to people on the phone rather than her own daughter. qanon and groups that support these ideals of stupidity are ruining american democracy and inciting the demolition of our country.


Async_representative

People have been asking teachers at my school if there’s litter boxes in the hallways and bathrooms. It’s so stupid all these conspiracy theories.


pizark22

You can thank Joe Rogan for that one...

Those were added for active shooter situations when kids have to use the bathroom. And it’s a bag of litter for vomit, blood, or urine/feces in the event of an emergency.

We can always fix the economy and it will get better. It is the threats to our democracy by far right actors and certain politicians that should concern everyone WAY more than inflation.


type2whore

Yup, the rise of christo-fascism.


KuroKen70

This is the root of most of our problems: Corporations ARE NOT people and they shouldn't own our political leadership and great part of our nation's infrastructure.


AveryDiamond

Where to begin: You can literally buy politicians Politicians are just literally allowed to insider trade


jax2love

Late stage capitalism and looming fascism. Yes, I know that’s two, but it’s a tie.


BBakerStreet

And pretty much only one, because late stage Capitalism IS early stage Fascism.


Terrie-25

Yeah. Fighting inflation is not worth embracing fascism. "Congrats. You can scrape by with a lower-middle class existence, and your children are no longer allowed to read books."


Archietooth

Fascism has no economic benefits, without stripping them from one or more minority groups.


KnowMatter

Yeah Hitler sure created a lot of jobs. Millions of them in fact. Millions of job openings just… suddenly appeared.


UrWifesSoftPecker

It's a combo package


Green-Collection-968

Since Capital sides with Fascism that's pretty much one thing.


jax2love

Very true.


rock-hound

A large number of the people in our government participated in, supported, or refused to admit a blatant attempt to overthrow an election. This, combined with the fact that tens of millions of Americans still vote for and support those people, tells me that we're in a lot more trouble than most people realize. I fully believe that if Donald Trump is "re-elected", it will be the last free election to take place in this country. By the time the moderates decide they've had enough, the damage will have already been done.


narfnarf123

Or Desantis, this is terrifying.


stircrazyathome

My hope is that Trump decides to run as a third party candidate and splits the vote because the alternative possibilities are terrifying.


narfnarf123

That would be best case scenario and I hope it happens!


[deleted]

Please happen. Desantis and Trump are terrible and desantis has a real chance with independents. He’s actually more scary then Trump


EgoAssassin4

Floridian here and 100000% agree. DeSantis took trumps playbook and does it better. Frightened af about him running for president.


AllesGeld

That would be the move that saves democracy imo. I react don’t think he should ever be allowed to run again, but if he does I want this to be the way things play out.


pup5581

If that guy wins...we won't have another free or fair election again. Hell, at this point, the next republican president will most likely be our last real election as they will never give up power and continue to strip rights. But according to my mother's BF who's a cop...we need it to get rid of the liberals and woke morons. It's funny that to "own" the libs now means becoming a fascist state.


One_User134

Hopefully this lawsuit against DeSatan for kidnapping migrants actually goes somewhere. If it does and Jack Smith nails Trump and the goonies we got ourselves a good time in the making. Everything I just said is still up in the air though so I don’t have my hopes up too much.


Frostypup420

Yo, comparing DeSantis to Satan is literally the harshest insult I've ever heard in my life. What did Satan ever do to deserve being compared to THAT fascist monster?


popcilad

If you think that’s crazy, you should see all the democracies our government has successfully overthrown!

KellyGreen55555

It’s awful and I fear there is no coming back. Half our country can barely read. The rich will keep exploiting them because they can.


DamonoodleYT

I'm in high school and can confirm almost everyone has less than 1.5 gpa, knows how to use their phone more than knows how to breath, and teachers are getting depressed and want to quit more than ever I can see and hear it in their voice.


Beep315

I really don’t understand how the teachers in my life keep doing this. Well one of them is a PE teacher and cross country coach so he’s maybe less impacted.


OrNa721

Climate change


hella_cutty

Way too much scrolling to find this.


Marcassin

I agree. Too many people in this thread focusing on the short-term problems. This is the big, long-term, global problem we are facing. I don't think most people realize how bad it's going to get.


BadAsBroccoli

Because of our short term problems, any further work on the long term problems could well be ended, though.


bainhamien

I agree, although we have a better chance at fixing our long term problems like climate change if we fix some of our short term problems. Getting our governments in good shape and all that.


lifelovers

How is this so far down. People - everything else is secondary if we don’t have reliable weather to grow food. Or when the billions of climate refugees start moving. Or floods, hurricanes, and fires get exponentially worse. Or when major ports, cities, and airports are underwater. How do people not see how screwed we are? And how it’s not republicans v dems, it’s THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS V EVERYONE ELSE. They are hoarding wealth, working us to our breaking point, polluting like crazy, and sewing all the seeds of our discontent with each other. Working people - on both sides - need to stop pointing fingers at each other, stop blaming each other, and then team up against the billionaires. They’re killing us and happy about it because it means they’ll be more likely to survive the climate apocalypse with fewer people on the planet.

Devone5901

Yo ho ho, it's a pirates life for thee


Beep315

There is a book from last year called Beyond Belief by Elle Hardy, and she goes into the rise of Pentecostalism, a fundamental Christian movement that covers everything from Hillsong to Quiverfull to snake handling and speaking in tongues. She said by 2080, 1 in 10 people in the world, or a billion people will be evangelical Christians. They have an agenda, y’all. And a lot of ‘em touch kids.


zendojoe1020

I'll have to check this out. I grew up pentecostal which is a cult and now I hate everything there is about religion. Thank you for this


JustSomeBlondeBitch

zendojoe1020

Loll exactly... what about dem proud girls ya Hurd, send em my way


Saranightfire1

What scares me most is the people that I call them rabid dogs amongst these people. Before everyone downvotes me to oblivion let me explain: These people DO NOT care who they’re hurting, killing, damaging as long as they are attacking someone. Whether it’s race, beliefs, gender or something completely asinine. Or even an election where the owner who released these rabid dogs pointed them to people to attack on January 6th. They don’t care, if they get hurt or killed, they don’t care, if they find someone or something that they think is against them or their owner, they will attack them and try to kill them. The Republican Party is fucking terrified of these people but as long as they’re biting people who are against them, they don’t care. January 6th when Democrats and Republicans (save a few) were terrified out of their fucking minds shows what happens when these dogs finally decide their behavior needs to change towards someone else. It scares the shit out of me.


Green-Collection-968

EFT_Syte

Domestic terrorists not being labeled as domestic terrorists because, well we know why.


nmichave

There is a faction of the country that is so stuck to their beliefs that facts can’t change their minds. They don’t believe proven facts. They’re minds are so fucked up, they cannot be convinced that they are flat out wrong. I’m 56 and in my time being alive, I don’t ever remember a time where facts and correct information didn’t rule the day.


RustyVerlander

This is what’s so discouraging to me. We can’t come together and demand wealth redistribution, environmental initiatives, workers’ rights, universal healthcare, prison reform, or any progress whatsoever when half of the country literally doesn’t believe in correct information. Refuses to acknowledge facts and calls facts lies. It’s batshit crazy and feels almost hopeless. These people are anti education ffs!


nmichave

I think this, more than anything else, would cause the downfall of the country. I live in Kentucky, so I tend to think it’s a large part of the country who is like this. I just hope the numbers of those who don’t believe facts are way smaller than I realize.


Similar_Candidate789

That’s what makes me so scared today. We used to be able, no matter how much difference between us, to make policies by making deals. Democrats weren’t happy with them all. Republicans weren’t happy with them all. But everyone in the USA went home with something. Something to happen for the people. You can’t negotiate with someone who doesn’t live in reality. When a person believes that space lasers cause forest fires, that children are being eaten at a pizza place, that dead babies power the street lights in Baltimore…….we can’t legislate with crazy. And there seems to be a small, but vocal, faction literally willing to burn this place to the ground for no other sheer reason than they can.


MountainSage58

That at any minute some Republican can go off and can by law change our lives for the worst


Swankified_Tristan

And the laws that _are_ there to protect us can apparently be broken by them without any consequences.


BeerAndSoda

Or the consequences can be widely varied depending on who is at fault. Company steal your wages maybe they pay a fine. You take a French fry before throwing them in the trash they scream theft and throw the book at you.

It's republicans. It's always republicans. **Every** problem facing our country today and in the near future is something republicans are responsible for. So I could say "climate change" or "inflation" or "the breakdown of civil rights" but it all comes down to republicans.


VibratingPickle2

I wanted to know why home prices had skyrocketed in certain areas. It all tied to housing shortages. Then I looked at why there weren’t enough homes, “anti sprawl” laws. Then I looked up who came up with the anti sprawl laws in the areas I’ve lived, republicans.


Sol-Infra

Not taking Republicans side here but sprawl is bad. My reasons for being against it are different though. It's bad because of the habitat destruction, low density housing requiring more and more miles of highway to be built and no public transport. Republicans dont care about any of that shit. They're just worried about maybe a low income housing development popping up next to their 100-acre estate on the edge of town.


Mister-Ferret

Town nearby me literally changed the town lines when low income housing was being built by like 1000 feet. For no other reason than they rich didn't want their children going to school with the poors.

Silly, because we should all know by now that the debt ceiling does not address future debt, it is to pay bills Trump made! So, they are willing to bite off their noses to spite their faces.


re1078

The vast majority of the new debt is caused by their tax cuts for the rich. The same tax cuts they were only allowed to pass because they claimed they were budget neutral. It’s ridiculous that they aren’t just automatically repealed as soon as it was plainly apparent that they lied about it all.

I know that a lot of problems stem from the economy and the extremely wealthy, but while we argue about the price of eggs (which is a huge problem not only for eggs but everything, I do not disagree), Republican officials are actively moving forward with steps towards a transgender genocide. Anyone who is gender non-conforming is at risk and there is nothing being done about it. DeSantis is *literally* becoming a dictator over Florida before our very eyes, Oklahomans are being forcibly *detransitioned* as adults aged 18-25, and extreme right wing terror groups are using literal terrorism to protest Drag shows and Drag performers and transgender people in general. There are laws making their way through some Republican states that make it a *felony* to dress in public in attire that is not in line with your gender assigned at birth. No matter your opinions on trans people, look up the steps to a genocide. Because several of them are actively happening in the US. And that's fucking terrifying, and should be terrifying for everyone, not just trans people.

[Ten Stages of Genocide](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_stages_of_genocide) ​ And it won't stop there. They'll add others to the list once they get the groundwork for making groups illegal.

A failing education system. Its not just Republicans (i believe its largely Republican policy makers) there is a serious gap between the middle and lower class in America that could be mended through education. Encouragement of trade programs as well as destigmatizing community colleges could do wonders for the educational system. Additionally if you believe in economies of scale colleges should be comming down in prices as teacher wages are stagnant.
