      To be fair, they’re probably all correct. The system still works for the wealthy.

      Of course the rich trust the system. They’re the ones benefiting from it.

      Of course the rich trust the system, they have lobbied the government to maintain the status quo. 

      Tax Wealth not Work.

      A substack blogpost should not make it to the headline on r/unitedkingdom it’s clearly designed to provoke the headline crowd.

      From the sources about us page:
      “The POLLUTERS and their CRONIES IN GOVERNMENT are killing us”

      The system has increased their wealth and power beyond their imagination, even though they have admitted the system is broken, but then again, it’s working fine for them

      To me that translates as: the rich want the status quo, the poor know it’s a rigged game.

      Our country has always been about class, hell even our supermarkets are class-based, but any notion of a veil has fallen since COVID.

      The classic line we sometimes hear trotted out that, *“Britain is a country based on fair play“*, is by now gone, it may have meant something back in the days (pre-2000s) when MPs would resign if they were caught out and you felt like there were rules that even the rich were expected to follow.

      By now we see no-one has any shame whatsoever, it’s a desperate scrabble for get rich however and by whatever means necessary.

      This is also why I have (some) sympathy with those working class who voted for Brexit, at some level they probably knew it might make them poorer/worse off, but it at least had a ***chance*** of changing something, somehow for the better, even if it didn’t make logical sense.

      I don’t have any sympathy for those of middle-class/older generations who’ve had the best of things relatively speaking. They should have known better and have no excuse for the utter mess they’ve created.

      Having said all this, I remain optimistic about the future, I feel like we’re still hitting bottom in the west and we’ll need to go a little deeper still, but that the younger generations especially will see this and help the world turn a corner. They seem like they have a good head on their shoulders, they just need to make sure they don’t wait to ask for permission from those already in power.

      The only ones who appear oblivious to this are the politicians……

      Rich get more rich and poor get more poor…

      Rich think it’s all good.

      Poor think it’s fucked.

      I’m shocked and appalled that the poor don’t trust the system. Get with the program poor’s, the system clearly works perfectly. Not a single flaw. Exactly as designed.

      ‚Economic growth‘ just means the wealthy get more money faster while the poor continue to get nothing. That’s why politicians shouting about ‚growth‘ just seem out of touch with ordinary people.
