 I wish the current economic and political systems in most countries would be dismantled and replaced with a direct anarchist-democratic model, though I’m not sure it’s possible since most people are disconnected from politics.

I just want to say that in the current economic and political system in the USA, which I see as a kleptocracy, about 80% of 75% of the population are not only poorer than the 25% oppressor class but are also victims of being exploited by the 25% business owner class.

You know how this works? It’s not just business owners paying low wages and taking the wealth created by workers. Big corporations like AT&T, Bank of America, or electricity companies often overcharge by just 1 or 2 extra dollars to millions of customers. They’re clever about it too—keeping the amount small so people won’t bother hiring expensive lawyers to demand refunds or sue them for such a tiny sum.

Banks sometimes take small amounts from people's savings accounts, like $1 to $5, across millions of clients. In a way, they get away with it, but it adds up to millions because if a huge corporation takes just $1 from millions of customers, that's millions taken.

Supermarkets and food sellers, including Walmart, do this by reducing the size of their products. For example, I noticed that in Walmart and other supermarkets, I used to buy 1 lb. packages of ham from certain brands, but now many of those packages are down to 14 ounces for the same price. That feels like stealing.

It’s noticeable that McDonald’s Big Macs are smaller now compared to the ones from the 1980s and 1990s.

What a scam of a nation, system, and ignorant population that, in a way, is responsible for having this corrupt thief and criminal, Trump, in the White House. The worst part is that U.S. voters keep supporting this legalized robbery every four years. Thanks to internet and YouTube influencers from both the Republican and Democratic parties—like Thom Hartmann, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, The Young Turks, David Pakman, and Meidas Touch—who are funded by these same parties, posing as radical, progressive, anti-war, anti-capitalist voices. Yet, before elections, their main job is to steer the manipulated minds of most Americans into voting for Democrats and Republicans, the very people responsible for leaving 80% of the population robbed and poor.
