Preach it brother. Pro-China Trump taking care of his billionaire pals is just business as usual. Joe is right.

'Stomachs turn': Ex-lawmaker flags Trump action that 'should send shivers up your spine'

President Joe Biden warned in his farewell address that "an oligarchy is taking shape" in the U.S., and CNN's Bakari Sellers presented chilling evidence that he's right.

House speaker Mike Johnson pushed out Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) as chairman of the intelligence committee, and Sellers said that move proved the authority Trump wields over congressional Republicans and also showed the influence his billionaire backers hold over the president-elect.

"This further goes to the infighting that we know is going to happen in the Republican Party," Sellers said. "But I don't believe that that many people thought Donald Trump would have his thumb on the pulse of House Republicans all the way down to committee chairmanships. I have a feeling this has more to do with TikTok than people are actually ... giving credit for it. We know that Mike is opposed to having a TikTok within the confines of the United States, and then we see now that we're going to have a Chinese state-owned media executive who owns TikTok sitting in the box at the inauguration, along with three other billionaires. It should cause people's stomachs to turn just slightly."

Shou Zi Chew, the chief executive of TikTok, has reportedly been invited to sit in a position of honor on the dais at Trump's inauguration Monday as the social media company challenges a congressional ban in the U.S. Supreme Court and will shut down Sunday if it can't find an American owner, and Sellers said the president-elect wasn't hiding his consortium with the ultra-wealthy.

"When you when you look at just the imagery, I mean, let's go to inauguration, for example," Sellers said. "You're going to have Elon Musk, you're going to have Jeff Bezos, you're going to have Mark Zuckerberg, and now you actually have the CEO of TikTok sitting in the dais, the non-elected officials who have their finger on the pulse and can pull kind of the strings of the president of the United States. It should send shivers up your spine, and the reason being is because the Bill Ackmans of the world, the Marc Andreessen, who now is apparently a new [human resources] director for the Trump White House, the Jeff Bezos, who is stripping the Washington Post for parts, the Elon Musk, who would prefer the United States resemble South Africa than anything else, and then you have people like Mark Zuckerberg, who is just trying to preserve Facebook from 230 lawsuits, uh, antitrust lawsuits, et cetera."

"These people are there for their own self-interest, and what happens to the individuals who are affected in Middle America?" Sellers added. "What happens to Black folk and poor rural America? What happens to these people, Hispanic voters who don't, who have the uncertainty of immigration laws coming in, and what happened to grocery prices, and so when you begin to look at what's affecting everyday common people, I can guarantee you that the Ackmans, the Andreessens, the Zuckerbergs, the Bezos, the TikTok CEOs, the Musks, they don't have your best interest at heart."

I'm confident Trump wants an American to buy TT. Maybe Elon Musk can buy it. He fixed Twitter from Government Control so I'm confident he can do the same in this case. You will just have to get over it that the CCP is losing control.

Of your exhaustive list, which ones served in Joe's cabinet/admin? then do the same for Trump's new hires. There's a big difference between writing checks and running agencies (real or made up).

They're all just self-dealing. They don't need more handouts and corporate welfare. The rich will get richer on the backs of the poor and that sounds good to MAGA.

“No poor man ever gave me a job.” How many times have you heard that one? Sadly, these words are often spoken by a working class person who should know better. It’s always said with a self-satisfied sneer, sometimes accompanied by some racial or gender slurs. Maybe you've heard people repeating the cruel sound bites from TV about how lazy and irresponsible poor people supposedly are.

If you go around saying stuff like this, aren’t you just trying to conceal your own insecurities? You think you need people “below” you to prop up your self confidence, don’t you? You know in your heart that you are just one lay-off, just one health problem or just one family tragedy away from poverty yourself. So overcome by fear, you adopt a worshipful attitude toward the wealthy 1% and their allies, hoping that you’ll be exempted from financial disaster.

"These people are there for their own self-interest, and what happens to the individuals who are affected in Middle America?" Sellers added. "What happens to Black folk and poor rural America?

What’s preventing poor people from becoming wealthy? Lack of skill? Lack of opportunities? Lack of money to invest? All are true. How does a poor person overcome this? Vote Democrat for free handouts? No. Let’s play along and say yes. Who pays for the handouts? Answer= The so called “fortunate” who actually pay the taxes. Who pays the most taxes? Answer =The wealthy. What happens when you make the wealthy pay more? They raise costs on their products. Who benefits from that? Answer =Nobody. Who suffers the most? Answer =The middle class. The poor get more money handouts, but never get ahead because the cost of living went up. The middle class didn’t get a raise and the cost of living went up. Therefore they are poorer than before. The wealthy, if you’re lucky, might keep their corporations that employ the working poor and middle class in the US, but due to high taxes, they must lay off employees. Therefore shrinking the middle class and putting more into poverty. Now we have a chain reaction. Democrats want to raise tax again to support the influx of people who lost their job and are now in poverty. More handouts. More tax. More layoffs. Finally the wealthy move the corporations overseas for cheaper labor. And guess what? To offset the expenses of transport by boat or air, they’re also gonna raise their costs on their products that now must be imported into the US. So who exactly gets ahead here? Poor? Answer = No. Middle class? Answer =No. Wealthy? Answer =No. Who exactly? Answer =Our politicians who strike deals with foreign leaders who want that Ford factory in Mexico or China who wants your favorite brand of rubber dildos to put a factory there. Because that benefits their economy and employs their citizens.

So now to return to the beginning of this post. Lack of skill? Lack of opportunities? Lack of money to invest? How does the poor overcome this? Learn a skill or trade. Vote for politicians who believe in America first, lower taxes. Lower taxes means jobs. America first means jobs stay here. Jobs that stay here that require the skill or trade a poor person obtains. Learning a skill or trade for a job that doesn’t exist here anymore doesn’t help the poor. Skill and trade jobs create opportunities and potential for wealth. Skills and trade create opportunities and money. Money becomes wealth. Wealth creates more jobs. Jobs here for our citizens.

Moe wants Government to seize the Means of Production.
 
That’s exactly what Hitler and Nazi Germany did. They seized all production

They allowed private ownership as long as you were loyal to the Government. The Communist want the Government to run everything. They are both Socialist Tyrants.

The term is linked to Marxist Ideology.

100% agree.
No healthy person should be poor in America. If you are doing without its because of bad choices.
Take 2 brothers raised together 1 becomes productive and lives a comfortable middle class life the other lives on welfare. The bum always saying to the other "must be nice " .
We live in a society that rewards bad decisions and punish good decisions. People are in debt because of bad choices, people lose homes because of bad choices.
