It is the most important election of our lives, and polls show that Donald J. Trump is currently leading Biden 45 to 44.9 percent (I already know someone is going to come at me with the "Yoo polls were wrong in 2016, so I shouldnt trust them". This is true, but polls are more accurate than ever. Additionally, the margin of error in 2020 polls are far less than 2016 polls). <br><br>As you know, we're living in a country that's numbered with unprecedented inequality. The distribution of wealth is so skewed that it is among the worst in the world. The 0.5% of the country is literally richer than the bottom half. 0.5%. But the media will only allow us to talk about "the wealthy" compared to "the poor", which is the same argument they made in the 1920s that led to the Great Depression. The wealthy includes the 0.5%, the bottom 50%, and everyone in between. But yes, we need to talk about "the wealthy" and "the poor", as if they are even in the same conversation. <br><br>If Trump wins, the billionaire class will continue to "pay their fair share" of taxes. They will continue to pay nothing, since their tax rate is lower than the rest of us. The billionaire class will continue to buy up agriculture, private education, and healthcare, and continue to create inequality. They will continue to rip us off. <br><br>The 0.5% are not in the same category as the wealthy. The middle class, the upper class, billionaire CEOs, and multi-millionaire celebrities are all part of the "wealthy". The billionaire 0.5% is in a league of its own. The 0.5% are not like you or I. They are not human. They are not a part of society. They are not held to the same rules as us. They do not follow the law. They are above the law. They are above democracy. They are a fucking menace, and they need to be held accountable. <br><br>But this isn't a new phenomenon. Billionaires have been a societal threat for centuries. But never has the disparity been this bad. Never have the social and economic consequences been worse. Neoliberalism has led to the billionaire "class" accumulating so much wealth that they don't know what to do with it. What the fuck do you do with hundreds of billions of dollars? You can only buy so many houses, cars, and planes, and vacation with only so many celebrities. So, they accumulate and accumulate. They're like dragons in a creative. <br><br>But when they don't have anything to buy, they begin to buy the things that we need, like healthcare and agriculture. This is why Neoliberalism is such a threat to society. It is a billionaire takeover. It is a threat to democracy. Billionaires will accumulate accumulated wealth until there's nothing left to accumulate. It is an existential threat, and we need to take action. We need to take action now. Neoliberalism is not the same as capitalism. Capitalism is the only economic system that works, but when accumulated wealth becomes too great, it is a threat. Capitalism only works when everyone is held to the same rules. Billionaires are a threat to democracy, and Trump is their leader. <br><br>In 2016, Trump was elected because the billionaire media told us he was a human with credit cards and loans, the same as us. They told us he was a populist when he was a fucking billionaire. He used social media to humanize himself and lie to the country about what he stood for. He called himself a populist billionaire "who would not be bought out by corporate interests". Yeah, right. He told us he was going to cut the budget and reduce debt. Yeah, right. He told us he was going to move us away from social media and stop spending money on the military. Yeah, right. He told us he was going to "drain the swamp" and rid us of corruption. Yeah, right. <br><br>He is an existential threat to our country and a tool of the billionaire class. He has only made things worse. His debt is the biggest in history. His military spending is the biggest ever. He has single-handedly increased the wealth gap more than any other president. He has ignored the growing threat of climate change and has moved us away from using clean energy. He has allowed billionaires to buy up agriculture and private education, creating a system of haves and have nots. He has worsened the growing inequality of our country. He has ignored the growing threat of billionaires. He is a neoliberal thinker with a threat to democracy. He lied to us when he said he was going to "drain the swamp". He draned the "swamp" by getting rid of the middle and lower class. He used the economy to concentrate the wealth, to the point that the 0.5% now have more wealth than the bottom 90%. This is not an exaggeration. This is billionaire "utopia". <br><br>Biden is not a billionaire. He is not a neoliberal thinker. He is not a right-wing radical. He is not a nationalist. He is not a threat to democracy. He is a threat to billionaires. He already said that Paul Krugman was his "hero". Paul Krugman is not a billionaire. He is not a neoliberal thinker. He is not a right-wing radical. He is not a nationalist. He is not a threat to democracy. He is a threat to billionaires. <br><br>This is the most important election of our lives. We need to vote Trump out. We need to vote Biden in. We need to vote to protect our country. We need to vote that billionaires are "not people too". That billionaires are not "just like you and I", and that they are not "just like the wealthy". <br><br>Our country is at a crossroads. Do we want to live in a country that's a threat to democracy, or do we want to vote to protect our country? Do we want to live in a country that's a billionaire takeover, or do we want to live in a country where everyone is held to the same rules? Do we want billionaire utopia or do we want a country with a human "utopia"? Neoliberalism is not the same as capitalism. Billionaires are not "just like you and I". <br><br>We cannot continue to move in the same direction. We need a change of direction, and the only way we can do that is to vote for Biden. We need to vote to protect our country from billionaires. We need to vote to protect democracy. We need to vote to stop the billionaire takeover of our country. We need to vote to stop neoliberalism and protect capitalism. We need to vote to stop the billionaire class from creating a system of haves and have nots. <br><br>This is the most important election of our lives. It is not a game. It is not a joke. It is not a pop culture event. We need to take it seriously. We need to treat it as such. We need to get off social media and vote. We need to get off of social media and talk to our friends and neighbors. We need to vote against a system of haves and have nots. We need to vote to stop the billionaire takeover of our country, or we're going to look at our country in 20 years and say "what the fuck happened to our country?" <br><br>There is only one answer. We need to vote against billionaires. We need to vote against Trump. We need to vote for Biden, and we need to do it now.
