Should we try to fix the huge differences in wealth? If so, how? Communism looks so attractive because the young generation has low income and huge debt. They look at low level workers making nothing and CEOs making A LOT. What non-communist ways could help the little people? I am thinking a closed border and more manufacturing jobs. Throw in a pipeline or two. Anything else?

There is a simple solution: capitalism
Now, with capitalism in place, there need to be fair tax rules. And by fair I mean the same percent for everyone, no exception for globalist mega corporations who pay 0% today while low income workers pay anything between 10-30% in income tax.
Communism doesn't solve anything, you can't magically raise the wealth for the lower class, that wealth needs to come from somewhere. And if you have corrupt government workers in between in charge of solving the problem the end result is: everyone gets equally poor, except the elite and the government who become super rich.
Are you ultimately saying that once the big guys pay their fair share, that taxes can go down for everybody.
I think so because if the little guy pays 10% and suddenly the big guy goes from paying 0% to 10%, well that little guy is still paying 10%. Maybe if the big guy finally pays 10%, everyone can start paying 8% instead.
Are there certain taxes we can get rid of that will help the little guy the most?
Well obviously, but it's important to remember that "the big guys" here are not the middle class, but the globalist mega corporations such as Amazon, Google, M$, Apple and similar. Commies always put the middle class and lower class towards each others in order to distract them from the big players.
There are two potential outcomes here, globalist mega corporations always establish in whatever country has the lowest taxes on them. If they where forced to play by the same rules as local small companies they either refuse to establish in a country at all, or they do so because they want the country's population as customers.
China always place requirements on globalist mega corporations, if they're gonna operate in China they have to pay taxes and be 51% Chinese owned. Corporations agree because it's a big market, but other countries or groups of countries could certainly put up similar demands. Russia maybe, The US definitely, EU absolutely, if they weren't cucks not giving a fuck about it's member countries.
If every large market in the world had these demands we wouldn't even have globalist mega corporations, there would be local branches of everything, all operating under local laws, paying local taxes. They could still have the same name but the world would definitely be more fair in terms of competition between small and big companies.
Income tax on work, fuck that and let everyone work tax free always. The more profitable work is, the less people will work for criminal gangs (tax free) or live off the government. A tax that makes more sense would be VAT, value added tax on consumption. That means the more shit you buy, the more you pay in tax.
Rates should be the same for everything, always, can't have the government controlling peoples consumption. Rates should also be the same across unions, and preferably similar worldwide so that no market becomes more attractive than another. Government need to scale down however, only do the essentials, many governments today are too big, have too much money and power, harassing it's own citizens and are too big to fail in many cases, that's a large problem for the little guy.

Kill the concept of sales tax. I have no idea how one person selling something to another person is a taxable event. The money used was already taxed as income.
Eliminate the marriage tax penalty.
A huge producer of wealth is cops. If you get to keep what you earn, you are gong to work longer hours, maybe later in the night.
The lady who crafted the Sanders Inaugural Mittens said the taxes were too high to bother going on with that. Yes, alas, she still liked Sanders anyway.
Anyother taxes that, once elminated, would most help the little guy?
The zillion taxes on the phone bills. This, that, the other.
Um yeah - nah as we say in Australia. If you work hard and make money more power to you. If you are a lazy cunt that doesn't work hard then complain everyone else is rich you can get fucked.
The current crop of Commies IS NOT railing against the mega corporations - they are working in concert with them and being funded by them. They are railing against good, hard working middle class and upper middle class people that work for their damn money. In other words, they are just fucking idiots, most of whom grew up in the very same middle and upper middle class homes and were given everything by their parents who were "too busy" to parent properly and farmed their children out to strangers and abdicated their parental authority to childcare workers and the school system.
They have no purpose in life and expect everything to be handed to them on a platter. They are the "participation prize" generation who were told they can do and be anything they want and were fortified with a steady diet of cliches like "live your dream" and "be the best you that you can be" . What they need is some hardship to wake them the fuck up.
Redistributing wealth won't make a bit of difference. These people are retarded LITERALLY. When humans don't have adversity in their lives they create it. When people don't have problems growing up they create them. This is why most super rich kids are total degenerate arseholes. When you have nothing to strive for and no faith in anything, religious or otherwise, you are a living moral vacuum that wants to suck everyone else into your pathetic, shallow drama queen existence.
They cannot be fixed other than with the passage of years and living in a world where they DON'T always get their way. They need real adversity not this shit they make up to satisfy the yearning to fill the moral vacuum they aren't even clever enough to realise they have.
Annnnnyway......end rant - it's not directed at you OP - but these total Useful Idiots who don't know what they have is precious and are willing to throw it all away for what? THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW!
Back to baking these beautiful biscuits for my husband =)
Just vaccinate all the rich guys
Get rid of negative tax rates
break up corrupt power
A transaction tax, no exemption for non profit NGOs, charities.
End the Fed and persistant inflationary environment. Imagine making 5% on savings. Make Savings and Investment Great Again!
There are too many monopolies and cliques and tribes in power scratching each others' backs for anything to change with our current anatomy of government and corporatism.
Those who have been canceled and marginalized and those just getting on their feet need to participate in emerging platforms like Gab.
Once there is more competing platforms of thought, then truth can be disseminated to the people, once the people realize how much they've been fucked, and can voice their dissent without having their lives ruined, and have opportunity to thrive elsewhere while fighting against this nihilism, self worship machine, then we can start giving wealth to the next generation of go getters.
In the meantime we need to simply spread the word that if you watch MSM and if you buy into wokeism you're a plebe and you're part of the problem and you're ruining the future of humanity for anyone that isn't in the elite class.
Can you narrow that down for me? What would stop tribes from scratching each others backs? Laws? What would those laws be?
Ultimately, what is the path for a little guy to make it big in this world? Go in to a trade, low taxes, no student loans, anything else? What we can do to make sure he succeeds so he doesn't turn to communism?
You can't narrow it down because it all derives from the hive mind, this notion of not rocking the boat, of smiliing and agreeing with big brother government and hte woke moverment, it is pervaisive everywhere, and if you try to resist it, unless you're in specific areas or industries you are destroyed.
So there is a mass forced compliance, most are simply sheep, and they will always be cogs in whatever machine is in power, but currently the power of the liberal hive mind that rose to prominance in siilcon valley during the tech boom is totally in control and ruels with an iron fist.
The problem is it's decentralized. Social power is a "chord" of many powerful entities working in tandem to enrich themselves. Just as there was no singular entitty responsible for the election steal.
Big tech, the judiciary, entertainment, education, etc. They are all seperate entitites, but they have over the decades learned to walk in tandem to support each other. It's a massive set of collectives that work in solidarity.
So the only way to combat this is for a new faction to arise, a free thikning, individualist collective that resists this group thikn and mob destruction of the other. As more people become aware of exactly what we're up against amidst the tech censorship of celebrity worship of those in the in crowd there will be more opportunities.
At some point the dam will hopefully break and the average person will see what a farce all this shit is. Climate chage, intersectionality, white priviledge, the biden admin, socialism, all this globalist destructive shit that serves and inflates the egos of the elite. It's a giant package rammed down everyone's throats and in the meantime or economies are collapsing and people are commiting suicide as their lives are ruined.
It's all a biproduct of indirect hatered for average people by those at the top, of forced compliance to inflate egos and altruism masking mass hate and self agrandizement.
Things change slowly, there is hope for the future, many are only now questioning everything amidst all the bullshit.
who gives a shit
why are you looking at other people's wallets?
Because it's why these stupid young people are supporting Democrats. If we had a CLEAR answer for them, they'd come over potentially to our side.
they were fed the lie that they don't have to work at life and everything should be handed to them, and the only reason it hasn't is because the people at the top gamed the system and fucked everyone else
you're not going to break that conditioning
they have no reason at all to believe you. if they do, then they have to change and start working hard themselves
why the fuck would someone who believes in victim mentality suddenly change their mind when it gets them NOTHING
If you are a leftist, you get to be special and do nothing. That is very accurate. However, your life is a lie. Sure, you don't have to do anything, but you are living a lie. And the ideology you are living is a lie and this lie reveals itself at every turn. Even though you are special and do not have to work (hard), your life is a lie. There is no winning and there is no joy. There is no sense of accomplishment. You are not building anything. The REASON to follow Trump and the Conservative ideal, is TRUTH. Truth rewards a person. Truth brings joy. I am living this.
I was a liberal and Trump changed me.
Do not give up on us.
don't lump yourself in with them, they're clearly stupid where you're not
hahahhaa, THANK YOU!
Let me ask you a different question then.
What would you tell a young person in high school regarding what they should do to succeed in this life?
This is a sweet response.
These are lazy bastards who got hoodwinked into studying for jobs nobody wants done.
How about you mind your own business. Money is a worldly evil and envy is a sin. So go about your business and don't worry about it.
Wrong. You sound like the Communist here.
Hi. Nope not a commie. Just an ex bible thumper that knows more than you
That ain't in the bible, Lefty. You're a con.
Do you have anything except mass downvotes? Nah you don't.
Anyway if you knew anything about the bible you would know that this world doesn't matter and especially money
Your favorite song...
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world
The Beatles fucking suck. Im not surprised you like them
*John Lennon
Now they suck because they sing your thoughts and feelings?
Kill yourself, then.
You first faggot
No, because this life does matter. You have to work for your salvation. That scares you... so you quote your misunderstanding of the Bible as fact thinking it will get you into Heaven. Nope.
I win every one of these. You choke.
