        Americans are trained to resist economic rights at all costs. Nothing should disrupt the concentration of wealth in the land of the free (of livable wages, healthcare, food, sincere dialogue, and a competent pandemic response). Don't try to twist it on us! We know your tricks!

        Agreed - with a 1.30 exchange rate that’s virtually identical... why don’t we just implement a new law?... the CEO can only be paid 100 times what the lowest paid member of staff earns... if they want a pay rise - the staff’s minimum wage has to rise...

        8/n Government merely re-distributes wealth. A government that perpetually runs fiscal deficits and expands sovereign debt must inherently recover same through legislation, ergo, taxes.

        11/n Why is healthcare in the "civilised" West strained during the occasional pandemic? Why, at the best of times, are we short of nurses and critical care workers that lead some to having 2 and sometimes 3 jobs thus becoming vectors for sundry bugs?

        Please don't lump all of us Americans together in this. Many if not most of us support requiring a living wage. $15 is not enough.
