democrats got this

I've said it once and I'll say it again … a large portion of the current democratic party is rich. The DNC serves corporations not the people. They are controlled opposition. They will keep the status quo as long as they get to continue living their cushy lifestyle. The whole system is corrupt and that includes the DNC, they won’t be saving us.

The problem is the system has been around for a long time and what we've seen is a huge wealth transfer that has made the rich richer and is currently eroding the middle class.

"As of 2023, the top 1% of households in the U.S. hold approximately 32% of the total wealth. In contrast, the bottom 90% of households collectively hold about 22% of the total wealth."

We've now reached the point of late stage capitalism/oligarchy and if the system doesn't change the wealth disparity will continue to grow.

There is already massive suffering. homelessness is spiraling out of control and a huge amount of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck barely surviving.

So I'd argue the alternative is starting to look quite attractive.
