    Cool, now how much of your work value is taken by people who did nothing but invest the generational wealth they got from their great great grandad laying claim to common natural resources? Surely that’s the bigger concern since it goes to rich peoples’ yachts instead of public services.

      That depends on if you refer to banking or inflationary spending.

        Both are spending appropriated by elected representatives in Congress. I’m referring to the portion of your work value that goes directly into the pockets of unelected capitalists.
