I remember under Trump 1 there was a point where wages for most people started to very slightly uptick and the stock market immediately went into a panic over inflationary fears. It's almost like the stock market is incompatible with a more equal society.
They build payday loans and pawn shops and auto dealers in concentric rings around poverty, like a series of increasingly fine filters, making sure every ounce of capital gets wrung out of a given place or community.
The authors of these pieces can get in their fucking cars and see these lots, these buildings, they can look at the fucking city permits, the proof of what is taking place is overwhelming.
And yet they go “rAiSiNg wAgEs? HoW dOeS tHiS eCoNOmy?!?”
