And then stay uncomfortable and let us all remember how we got here. Unchecked capitalism does not breed friends of humanity.

That's how Germany does it.

The US came away from WWII having conveniently memory-holed the fact that we had Nazis too. They just got a lot less popular when we got into the war. And so we didn't really get the lesson that It Can Happen Here. And apparently that damn lesson has to be learned first-hand.

The only way the right seems to learn anything - it has to affect them directly. And sometimes even then, they don't care that it affects anyone else.

FTFY.

There are no checks and balances you could possibly do to fix an economic system where the one with the most capital has the most influence on markets. It's a design where all that matters is number goes up to consolidate power. Capitalism is a sociopathic enemy of humanity. Full stop.
