How Western Civilisation Could Collapse (Goes to the BBC)
Essentially the argument is rising income inequality will first destroy the middle class and poor, followed by the wealthy who are supported by them.
Good to see the BBC is getting on board with what liberals in the USA have been saying ever since Ronald Reagan was elected - “trickle-down” economics doesn’t work.
The French Revolution, the Russian Revolution, the Chinese revolution, the Cuban revolution were all responses to the extreme economic and political disparities between the ruling classes and the working classes. The ruling classes never learn from history.
