So you lose a hell lot of revenue.
Fuck the 50's, in the 50's the wealthy had loyalty, were patriots and they were not predatory multinational companies.
Which guide America's economy today.
And politics, as well.
But you make the assumption that is utterly *impossible* to fix these issues.
Difficult yes, but impossible? No
Today, impossible.
What do you mean today?
2020's
Obviously
Do you mean from today to infinity, that is impossible
Or that ddoing it in an instant is impossible
2020's
2020-2029
And after?
And beyond, until we reach a breaking point which restarts the economy. But it will happen naturally, with the collapse of capitalism. And if you try to break capitalism intentionally in the 2020's, you will find yourself breaking the American economy as well.
Not if you make the middle-class powerful again
Making it powerful isn't enough. You need to make it WAY more powerful than the upper class.
Which is possible
How is it possible, then?
How is it 100% doable, then?
There are a plethora of things which we need to fixed. But for a start
Reduce or Ban corporate influence in politics
Ban funding for elections - all funding is public (like nations in the EU, each party gets a certain amount of money from the government to campaign)
Banning corporate influence in politics will lead into some, if not most, corporations leaving the country. Not to mention that today, the corporations rule the politics of China, the USA, and many other nations.
Do continue.
There is no evidence that banning corporate influence in politics will lead to most corporations leaving the country
Increase the Federal Minimum Wage to match inflation and buying power. Force price restrictions to ensure companies do not raise prices in response. Any company that attempts to raise prices is threatened with nationalization.
I'm not aware of the existence of such evidence indeed, yet I think you'd agree on the fact that you don't always need evidence.
Program to put every single homeless and unemployed able-bodied man to work by working with the private sector and implementation of monumental public workers programs such as the expansion of the interstates, new hydroelectric dams, revamping all infrastructure
So basically you're keeping the free market, but also restrict the corporations (some if not most will leave), and then somehow force all people who are able to work, to the private sector (some of which will most probably be damaged by your previous implementations), and you also assume that you have enough money to spend to the infrastructure.
There is no evidence some or most will leave.
And i do not see how any such claims can be regarded as self-evident.
> I'm not aware of the existence of such evidence indeed, yet I think you'd agree on the fact that you don't always need evidence.
I also explained why they would leave. Most would migrate to China, I guess, a country in which their revenues will increase by more than 500%, if you implement these measures.
Invest heavily into AI and AI Models to predict which industries are needed the most, as the private sector already utilizes AI to predict supply and demand, more advanced AI can act as a de facto economy planner
In China the government has de facto complete control over industry, and they have something 1950's america had
Patriotic and loyal buisness owners
They are loyal because they have money.
Not really
They are loyal because if they disobey they are killed
Literally.
