Please explain what you're proposing. Are you saying to get rid of democracy or what?

How about we tax the rich so there are no billionaires, take the corporations out of housing and rentals and fix our gerrymandering? These would go a long way to fix the problems.

Can you please explain your line of thinking here? This person purpose more drastic measures than just taxing, and you jump on them being against democracy. How is democracy = some people being ultra rich?

Like, for me, democracy means people decide how the society is ruled, so Im excited to hear how changing the system to get rid of disparity is the same as abolishing democracy

Not sure if you're pretending to be OP or you're actually OP. Either way, this one is toast in this community.

Edit: It was a temp ban anyway, don't worry too much about it.
