You could well be right… I come here from a pretty left perspective but what actually killed it for me was seeing up close how, in particular, the UK Labour Party has utter contempt for its members, so I’ve fallen back into a more comfortable anarchistic position.

I don’t have the answers, I can just add a touch more bass if you need it but I find the tax the rich argument frustrating as the people on government are only ever acting on their own self interest and we’ve gone to an ever increasing public/private system that ultimately means governments print money for the benefit of private shareholders. The average worker sees no upside with this arrangement and the national debt grows larger still.

Not sure K shaped economies ever worked out too well in the past. Left or right, most folks feel their money getting less valuable and if you’re already in a lower bracket, that hits especially hard. I’d push back on them not having any money, less sure but most folks trade their time for money in some way and recognise they’re getting an ever worse deal.

Obviously this isn’t news to anyone here but I feel I need to get it off my chest.

Well said - It's understandable normal people gravitate towards socialism when there's a cost of living crisis, but it's not really a solution .
