I don't see any practical way for the wealthy to be barred from power, and vice versa, although I do think that may be beneficial. Allow the lower class to largely control society while keeping the wealthy subservient, ineligible from enacting political change, but complacent because of how well-off they are. Sounds interesting.

They kind of go hand in hand. Those without money don't have the power to take the power from those with money.

Unless you want to charge a man in a tank with a stick. You can throw as many poor people as you want at a tank but nothing's gonna happen.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.

Not true, eventually the treads will be gummed with corpse mash and someone will be able to climb onto the tank.

The problem isn't the wealthy, it's the government. If I had a fuck-tonne of money I'd buy political favours too. I do think, however, they should be largely separate.

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.
Well, how bad could that turn out compared to what we have now?

Capitalism is only fucked when governments don't stop people from unsustainably exploiting natural resources.
People don't do that unless property rights are poorly defined. A capitalist isn't going to deplete the stocks of his fish-farm when they're his most stable source of revenue; instances like this only occur when the lake is communal property and a bunch of fishermen are competing for the biggest catches.

the people are still cutting down trees far faster than they're growing.
Precisely because property rights are poorly defined within the logging industry.

You can have power without money, you can't get money without getting power.
