    The first step is creating a union where you work. Creating a union is the stepping stone to many different things. Sweden which has the least inequality of any nation, has a union density of just over 70% while the union density in the USA is around 10% and some of those unions are run by committees that have a different agenda than the people in the union, so it is less than 10% and the USA has the greatest inequality of any G7 nation, of any developed nation.

      We live in a society that distracts and creates apathy about politics. The sociology of conflict theory suggests that in capitalism, where we have ended up is the only place we could have ended up.

    The main reasons that the producers of goods in the United States are at a competitive disadvantage with producers in China and countries is the lower costs of production in those countries. That lower cost of production centers around lower labor costs and fewer regulations regarding both working conditions and environmental protections. There is, however, another systemic advantage (but one that in China has rapidly disappeared). This is the lower cost of land acquisition. Land costs in the United States have always experienced cycles of boom and bust, the last bust occurring in 2008. But, within just a few years the land market regained its upward climb. The Federal Reserve actions to drive down the rate of interest to borrowers gave confidence to speculators that land prices would climb. The demand for land was, therefore, credit-fueled and speculation driven. We are very near the next land market bust, as land prices (and, thus, property prices, generally) have reached heights no longer affordable to a growing number of households and businesses.
    The systemic solution has been known since the time Adam Smith was writing "Wealth of Nations." What is the solution? It is simple: capture via taxation the full potential annual rental value of all privately-held land. Land in its broadest since includes such natural assets as frequencies on the broadcast spectrum and even take-off and land slots at airports. One economics professor in recent decades who made the clearest case for this change in law was University of California professor Mason Gaffney. Many of his writings are available online.

    14:08 Here in Brazil on election time (municipal, state and federal) all the candidates also get free TV and Radio time.
    After all the airwaves they explore through PUBLIC CONSETIONS belong to the people, right?
    I don't know exactly the details but there is some kind of "deal" and the networks get some "discount" in their taxes for the time "lost". I personally don't quite agree with it, but anyway...

    Do you know how you can change for the better? Stop blaming other people, like China, for your own made misery. That’s a really good start.

    Good speech. Of all the groups you mentioned, you forgot disabled veterans. Oops. I think you should evaluate the power of that group to lead. Look at American history.. its not unions. Its veterans. But. Almost a great speech. I suggest you uodate your rhetoric to include this for more followers to unite behind you. Veterans lead the way here and more importantly... Posess the critical mass, professor
