Replying to @Ashedryden@xoxo.zone
Was talking this morning about how we are really at an existential crisis, society-wise, where either things are going to continue getting worse and we are just going to have a massive chasm between capitalists and the average person or the government is going to have to implement social safety nets that hold these people accountable or we won’t have a society.
@Ashedryden my partner and I have maintained that we are due up for a 1929 style crash sometime before 2029. In fact, we're actively planning our finances around such a thing.
1929 was the start of a pretty bad decade with a lot of hardship for a lot of people. But it was also the catalyst for the New Deal and a host of new government programs that put workers first.
Sadly, I don't know how we get out of this without something similar.
