How about taking action against the billionaires? Private jets, industry emissions, subsidized lab grown meat etc.... nah fuck the average guy who can't defend himself.....
Wait, since when was lab grown meat the enemy? I thought one of the biggest selling points of it was that it was significantly more environmentally friendly than traditional cattle ranching.
It's a scam for people who don't understand nutrition, are afraid of beans, and still want to die young.
We could do both by going after those and also building public transit for the average guy. Imagine if car ownership isn't required to work or socialize? You don't have to park it anywhere, pay for gas, maintaince and insurance, you could drink 5 beers and still go places without getting a DUI.
