Then take half the soldiers from bases across the globe back home? That way they could help the economy by working. Then increase COLA by 50% after the first year? Would that drop prices and gas prices and so forth would that make American prices drop considerably? Or what is the sure fire gurantee to get prices back to normal with out Corp gouging and gas under 2 bucks a gallon?
I’ve often asked myself the same thing. I’ve actually got a website up where I sort of throw it out there that I’d like to run. It’s probably not realistic that a random person who’s not versed in politics nor wealthy from the get go, but I’m really fucking such of feeling powerless against those with millions- billions of wealth that they use to influence everything else everywhere while 99%everywhere else struggle.
I’ve even searched for party and alternative groups to see what or who could ever offer real momentum against the 2 party system!
I have little knowledge and a lot of motivation/conviction, but a healthy fear if anyone ever posed a real enough threat to those in power, that threat would “fall out a window” or kill themselves, or something else random.
I’ve started volunteering with Forward party which feels like a catch-all for 2 party abandoners, independents, and anyone else looking for logic over emotion.
