The workers are being screwed (wages down, inflation higher, fewer benefits, not many holidays/sick leave with 'gig economy' or even without it; a race to the bottom!). This year Xmas felt like nothing more than "another weekend" and NYE will be treated similarly.

• The current economy is collapsing. But the oligarchs try to make it all collapse on US (not the country, but us the non-oligarchs) while blaming "nature", e.g. COVID-19 and "supply chain". #inflation is just a side effect; they plunder the capital, calling themselves "philanthropists" and "job creators" (where? Sweatshops?)

• Those ~7,000 BILLION dollars they've taken from the cookie jar over the past 2 years did not help the working class. It just ended up in offshore bank accounts of tax-evading corporations and oligarchs who run Wall Street (plunder the masses through speculations and utterly ridiculous, fictional valuations) https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/government-debt

• The US economy is not collapsing. It already collapsed. It happened 13 years ago. Since then it bought time, riled up partisan race riots, and bought some more time for oligarchs to plunder what's left some more, mostly by issuing more money at the Treasury, writing off the public (debt) as "collateral". And guess what? The people who did this already have homes abroad, bulletproof cars, mercenaries, and emergency chambers. They don't care about 'their' nations. As unpatriotic as it gets, they refuse to even pay tax.

• Countries should not be judged/assessed by their plunderers; a country with vast tent cities and 'suits' in Wall Street has no moral authority to mock USSR and Russia. It replicates all the very worst element of the system the fake "patriots" condemn and tell people to "join the Army" to defeat.
