No matter how often I see this data, I always find it shocking. Of all the massive growth in output produced by the world's workers since 1980, more than half of it has been captured by the richest 1%. This is what happens when capital controls production.

We have enough productive capacity to ensure good lives for 8 billion. And yet, because capital controls production, deprivation remains endemic. This new study shows *95%* of surveyed households in low/middle-income countries are denied access to basics.

Learn from Germany. When the left panders to anti-migrant sentiment, like the BSW, it just strengthens the far right. When the left fights solid, populist, grassroots campaigns, like Die Linke, it wins.

Once upon a time, the social democrats were the workers’ party in Germany. In the election today the extreme right AfD gained 3x more support from workers than the SPD.

In Germany, a far right party has the best result since WWII. 75% of AfD voters say they are very worried that prices are rising so much that they can’t pay their bills. Inflation once more fueled the extreme right.
