Rich people's interests align, rich people will always act to favor the rich, it can be no other way, if they expect to stay rich.
I don't know what those people do, i can only surmise from the data that i have.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Rich people are not 1 entity.
They have factions.
There is competition.
There is also collusion.
There are also cases of charade of competition when in fact there is collusion.
Do you believe there is only collusion and no competition?
No, the dogs that eat other dogs think rich dogs taste even better, imo.
They know who is out on credit when they crash the business cycle, it is their job as banksters.
What does your first sentence mean?
Do you believe there is only collusion and no competition?
Back when currencies were backed by real assets, they needed to do what you wrote, today they can just steal value by inflation, taxes, tax shelters and exemptions for the rich, and control of prices through fiat future markets with no delivery.
No need for crashes anymore, and they can also prevent crashes under current conditions.
Dog eat dog means that you have no friends in business.
All crashes have occurred to serve the purposes of those that profit by causing them.
By continuing to work, while not paying for anything, we make ourselves immune to the banksters, and their 'market' manipulations.
"By continuing to work"
"while not paying for anything"

The slavery you reference is our lot in life, somebody has to gather the nuts, if we are gonna eat nuts.
As I want more out of life than nuts, I agree to build houses so that the shoe makers, et al, may make shoes.
As long as workers continue to do the work, crapitalism can fall into the fiery pits of hell, as it should, imo.
How do you figure that a general worker's strike wouldn't free us from the crapitalusts?
If we refuse to work for them, while continuing to work for the other workers, accomplished by simply refusing to join into the banking game, the goods will continue to be on the shelves for consumption, as if everything was craptastically fantastic.
In the short term, constraint will have to be shown.
In the long term, we retire at 50 having never had to worry about paying rent, or buying groceries.
We don't retire to a few 10's of thousands, we retire to a world where EVERYTHING is free.
I don't think many people will continue the status quo once they learn the options that actually being free of coercive control offers.
How do you think you could retire to a world where everything is free?
Workers' strike is one of the things that should be done, and strike is the opposite of work.
All the dissonance from your previous reply still stands.
