[–] iocase@lemmy.zip 18 points 1 month ago We don't get a choice As long as what you want is what the economic elites want, it happens. The correlative factor between what the regular people want and what ends up happening is 0.05. elites are 0.78. business interests are 0.48 If you want to see change become an oligarch, and if not join a business lobbyist group. If you can't do either you're SOL. permalink fedilink source
