Some of my ideas:

  • Start a garden

  • Start a family

  • Start a business that provides something genuinely valuable

  • Befriend your neighbors

  • Attend local town halls

  • Run for a local office

  • Boycott companies with bad practices

  • Support companies with good practices, especially local small businesses

What else?

Having no bucks is not an excuse if you ask me, people lived before bucks existed. You can always get more bucks you can't always get more years.

It's not an excuse and "people lived before bucks existed" isn't an argument

It's like saying, people used to rob banks with black powder revolvers on the back of a horse, now what? You want to rob a bank these days with a black powder revolver and a horse? It's non sense

We are living in societies, where you can hardly do anything without paying a fucking toll, period. You can hardly barter anymore for instance, you can hardly live, without a bank account, as a matter of fact you technically can't get legally pay or get paid without a bank account in most of the western world

That's the actual world we're living in and it's quite telling about who's actually running the show here, who has the upper hand over pretty much every aspect of our lives

When you start out as a young adult, you are in your sexual prime. It is the time you should be reproducing. You also probably don't in most cases have a lot of bucks but you will have bucks if you work hard and get a little bit lucky. If everyone didn't have kids until they can afford it then no one would have kids and now you have a serious birthrate problem. Which is exactly what we are seeing in the west today.

There is more than one way to make bucks robbing a bank is hardly the only option.

How exactly do you suggest we fix it without producing more people that are intelligent?

should

Should what? Put the cart before the horse?

You are suggesting to a "young adult" like 20 something, just start a family like right now, in the current context, without a stable situation? Then what? He takes mortgage over mortgage? Him and his wife? Because that's what's likely going to happen here, unless the parents do that... Yeah. Some can some can't I guess.

>you will have bucks if you work hard and get a little bit lucky

Yeah let's talk about that in 2020 post covid... And let's talk about the time left, after you're done working hard and taking care of your kids. Like fucking zero, zero time left. How are you supposed to attend town hall shit, run for office and shit, in that context? If you have time to read 3 news articles a day that's already great, if you have 1 hour for your personal activities per day, that's actually great in that context....

Luck isn't a plan btw

...

Do you know how poverty perpetuates itself? Why there's so many poor... Into what is debt bondage in the end

>How exactly do you suggest we fix it without producing more people that are intelligent?

Intelligent people have always been a minority, for a reason

You want to fix "it"? Fix what?
