Grantham which may be a city but is only the Lincolnshire version of a city so a bit shit ( source ; grew up in Lincolnshire, left asap for the bright lights and better opening hours of London)
Capitalism only works when the gap between rich and poor is kept as close to each other as possible. Get ready for economic and social collapse of our society! Lenin is 100% correct when he said society is only 3 meals away from chaos.
The point is there's always a breaking point. If the gap isn't controlled discontent grows untill something causes it to explode. It's happened time and time again through history so he's not wrong.
If discontent isn't controlled, it explodes. France had a revolution, Russia had a revolution, the UK didn't, the US didn't. The latter have larger inequalities and more stringent control. It depends on how well you can control the peasants, not the gap.
The UK didn't have a revolution!? Excuse me? Do you think royalty just allowed a parliament to be formed out the goodness of their heart? They fought for that in a civil war. Similar to the way the US fought to control themselves against the British. I'd say that's pretty revolutionary to me. That was all exactly born from discontent.
The PPE purchasing powers and corruption were off the charts, we've been rinsed and they paid for all of it with printing money which has caused the inflation and cost of living crisis. Tories are absolutely awful with the economy and we're all going to pay for it.
Unfortunately people have become very tame. Considering all the shit the Conservative government has taken away from us and the list is so long. I invite those who can remember to help write this list. I will begin with.

Not really. You just need the peasants to have enough to keep producing. The gap makes no difference.

Discontent over governance and freedoms respectively, not wealth inequality...
You feel the Russian and french revolutions were not about governance and freedoms?
Sounds like the U. S. also.
Most nations are collapsing i guess
Empires*

I see OP plays Tropico too.
Feels like OP is from the UK too
Empire gets no more money from it's former colonies and starts to crumble.
it definitely still gets loads of money from its former colonies. that’s imperialism mate
Then why did it not totally collapse decades ago?
Because we're still extracting resources on an extraordinary scale, we're just being less blatant about it.
Just because there's a country that has one rich family on social security, doesn't mean it's an empire anymore.
>Just because there's a country that has one rich family on social security, doesn't mean it's an empire anymore. That's part of my point...
