I don't see how you can tear everything down and get to a better place. Tearing everything down will leave you with nothing. Endless examples of "people's republics" where the power gets concentrated and people are left with none. The total wealth has expanded with capitalism. Large numbers of people lifted out of poverty.

Yes, housing is a problem. But then fix the regulation that inhibits development of housing and makes it more expensive. And then go work in construction as houses don't build themselves. Wealth is to be created not to be redistributed until there is nothing left.

There is a spectrum of possible actions. Some things will need to be entirely replaced. Others maybe only 70, 40, 10%. And solidarity to effect the most painful changes.

The current trend is reaching the breaking point.

Here are the latest numbers on inequality. Bottom 50% of people paid just 2.3 percent of federal income taxes. Is this something to be replaced?
