    As a child of the 70s. The tv series 'The Six Million Dollar Man' was one of the most exciting things on tv. We couldn't imagine that amount of money. Now it's the price of expensive house. Nowadays Billionaires are a thing. They shouldn't exist. A fairer society, should have some control of these people's money.

      I remember having a pretty heated back and too with some Yank a while back about why His country wasn't the greatest Country on Earth, His main argument outside "the usual" was His country had the most Billionaires totally failing too see that was one of the main arguments for His country failing.
      They should not exist and they can only exist precisely because Millions have to have nothing/comparatively nothing for one person to become a Billionaire and that a good number of those Millions with nothing were His fellow Americans.

      @christopher dresser If Elon had to pay a 'reasonable' amount of Tax do you thing He would suddenly stop doing what He does? Don't forget the Richest in America used to be Taxxed at 90%, did that prevent Americans from becoming Rich?
      Ceo/Owners of Companies used to make 8-12 times more than their lowest paid employees.
      Its upwards of 500/600 Hundred times now in a lot of Big Corps and commonly above 200 Hundred times.
      As Gary has stated about the many crises we all face today they can all be traced back to the main crises that links/Births all crises, the crises of inequality.

    Great analysis as usual but maybe you’re missing an opportunity to make this powerful point on mainstream media. Difficult to do I know but if you go on sky news and say “I don’t care about the drama - look at the policies” that’s a really important message to share.

      Sadly the politicians have co-opted this rhetorical resource - BJ's go-to is "ahh all these many and varied scandals are not what the public are interested in, what they want is for us to 'get brexit done', deliver the levelling up agenda, blablabla"
      Edit: by scandals I don't mean partygate. I mean the elite's lack of accountability when it comes to every single thing during this neverending tory rule, not least the millions of public purse pounds that were handed to tory friends during covid in exchange for absolutely nothing

    People need to understand that government (and really most institutions we rely on) is not only corporate, but has also adopted corporate culture. One aspect of that is to constantly move people through, so they can commit sadistic acts/crimes and keep the focus on individuals. Essentially smoke and mirrors, people to jeer at while they keep up the game of theft they're all involved in. And it is a game to them. Life and death to us, but a game to them.

    1:29 bingo!!!!! you hit the nail on its head, and it is a palpable hit. My personal observation of the people in general, not just in this country but globally is that a major part of the problems we face as a human race is that we are indoctrinated by so many things, both learned and genetic, to nurture, justify and bring about the conditions of our oppression. That is why we elect people based on perceptions of personality, and we do not pay attention to what they actually do. The idea of democracy is to select that which we want, and we tend to forget that people will talk the talk but will not walk the walk. But there are those who have realised that no matter how much you exploit the people or even make it obvious? The robbery and banditry can be renewed in the next cycle because people forget so so easily. It truly frustrates me that if people just took a moment out and really thought about the-reality they were being presented with? they would get it and all problems would be solved. History is a great teacher. And all it took for me was one documentary on youtube about the venetian oligarchs back in the day. And suddenly everything became clear. Those conditions that happened then are being reproduced now. And that vision is truly hellish for the have nots. I could go on but I WONT. you certainly sparked a thought process in my head. so i think i will write a book 😀👌

    @maxgee1691 Год назад

    The Cult of Personality is what got Johnson - and Trump - into power. People's fascination with celebrity and the press' pushing of that to the fore makes people look more at the figurehead and takes them away from the policies. It's when it starts to hurt them personally that they are moved to act, be it by voting, marching, strike action etc. So many people still call Johnson 'Boris' because his image was carefully crafted, over many years, to appeal to the public. It meant he could get away with a ton of absolute scandal until people started to realise they were being had and were personally offended, i.e. Partygate. Whether the electorate takes Sunak to its heart in the same way is debatable however. I sense the tide may be turning and that people have had enough of personality in politics. Let's hope so, anyway

      No, it isn't. What the rich do, as Gary explains elsewhere, is buy up assets. So if you leave your house to your kids and they use it as a rental property, or sell it and it becomes a rental property, then at that point I think that comes into the category of what Gary talks about, because that then deprives poorer people of the chance to buy it. (Not that I don't think it would be understandable for you / your kids to do that.)
