    What you’re from norway or canadian or something?

    It’s easier to be egalitarian when your loaded with oil money, isn’t it?

      Nope, but I’m from scandinavia, no oil money.

      Edit: also, I dont like categorical descriptions, because reality is more complicated. But what is happening in the US is more specifically referred to as “rentier capitalism”. In Scandinavia, we have something like “welfare capitalism”.

          I’m not saying we don’t have things to work on, but it’s not black or white. Social injustice gets reduced over time in a democracy. Name a country that is not capitalist that has never done bad things.
