Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

And proofs as clear as founts in July when
We see each grain of gravel, I do know
To be corrupt and treasonous.

People who believe in hellfire are, I believe, primarily struck by the prosperity and comfort of the wicked, and imagine a just reckoning. Universalists are struck by the misery of practically all of human existence and imagine, after all, a divine recompense for the pain of living.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.
