Oh this isn't a Wendy's?
Whatever idealized version of capitalism that is in your head is only a temporary state as the economic system regresses towards its natural end stage.
Its true, I don't know which way of life is "the way".
What I do I know is that the way of life we have is a piece of shit... has always been a piece of shit... and will continue to be a bigger and bigger piece of shit until we collectively flush it.
We need to try new things till something works. Fuck the status quo. Fuck the 1% who wishes they could be kings.
How do we effect societal change? We first need to get our hands on the wheel. We need more then two political parties so there is competition in the electoral process. We need new fresh ideas, not the dinosaurs of both legacy political parties.
We can get that with state level electoral reform. With a more representative voting system (such as, but not limited to Ranked Choice voting) people could vote for who best represents them, secure in the knowledge that their vote will still be counted if their preference didn't win.
If the democrats and Republicans are to weak to compete because of the many many years of using First Past The Post voting as a crutch... that's on them.
Capitalism
Consider working up to 8 hours a day at work.
So you understand the mathematical flaws of First past the post voting?
How is the electoral reform campaign going in your state? Surely you wouldn't understand the faults of the voting system and then do nothing to fix it!
but the the shit fptp system means they’ll never get any traction
When do we fix the electoral system?
In another election voting third party could be worth it
Which one? Every election since before my time has been the most important election ever..
Why are there only two viable political parties?
Real life is not a movie where the bad guys all conveniently wear the same uniform
A suit and tie.
Cops are civilians, and should be treated as such.
Should be...
Housing should be free. At least the rent of a coffin 6 feet underground is still affordable.
