The New Deal wasn’t built on a promise that there would be “no ceiling” for the richest Americans.
Quite the opposite, in fact. FDR knew its politics could only work if he singled out the rich as villains and knew that its policies could only work if the rich paid their fair share in taxes.

This Day in Labor History: November 22, 1909. Approximately 20,000 garment workers in New York City went on strike against the horrendous conditions of their sweatshops. This strike, known as the Uprising of the 20,000, was the largest strike led by women in American history to that time!!!

One of the goals of rightwing politics is shrinking the size of the middle class because people without resources are more easily controlled. Guess what happens when you push people off their insurance?
Trump wants to shift the cost of ACA subsidized health care entirely onto Americans who depend on it. The uninsured Americans will spur a public health problem with more expensive premiums for the insured as hospitals look to recoup the loss.

The first federal investigation into Border Patrol corruption and “excessive violence” was launched in 1930; by 1933, the government had fired every single working agent.
Fast forward to today, and the agency's sexualized workplace leads to harassment and assault, according to former agents.

This is one of the things that's often missing from online discussions of anti-capitalist theory. The question that actually determines our socioeconomic status and fate is this:
Do you live off what you're paid for your own labor, or off the profits you draw from the labor of others?

I can’t believe you idiots are still arguing with me about this. Idc what your job is paying you now, you still have to labor for your money. You’re working class.
All it takes is an unfortunate accident or illness for you to be in the poor house. Medical debt and fallout would cripple you. Stfu.
