since Trump has bankrupted the USA, the new moderate position should be to seize all the assets of the billionaires and millionaires who scammed the country into bankruptcy, no?

The federal government, as a sovereign currency country, cannot really go bankrupt; the real issue is that our fiscal policy is gravitated towards private exploitation and accumulation of profits by fewer and fewer people. Redistribution from the wealthiest to the masses and socialization of the economy towards public/social needs rather than private grift and exploitation is the only real solution.
i agree, but i dont think the government will solve the problem. The government is the problem, especially since 2008. Its the means by which the wealthy get socialism for the rich
Voting is begging them to change - it wont work. We have to do it ourselves and while organizing is and must be an ongoing effort, supply chains at anonymous scale need some form of currency to organize and we must adopt something they cant print to prevent becoming socialism for the rich again
"The government" is not some independent entity that exists beyond the reach of the people. Governments can be manipulated and set to favor elites, but they can also be reset to allow the masses to maintain accountability. The government is the vehicle for mass rule; it cannot be simply denied or abandoned.
i dont think that is true.
i cant see it anywhere
now i can see a small elite or a new elite telling themselves that story to feel legitimized, but thata about it.
