      This is totally possible under actual democracy, the only challenge is getting enough people to the point where they’re not voting against their own long-term interests, and voting system’s robust enough to withstand the influence of capital.

      What I mean is, there are governments around the world already funding positive things, on the collective purse.

      It’s just at the moment, it pales in comparison to the stranglehold capitalism has over our economies.

      Just saying, we don’t need to wait for the entire world to join hands to move towards socialism.
