The Defeat of the Elite

I reckon the elite has the power to overthrow the lower-class people, stripping them of their rights. The majority has the power to ruin people's lives. They do this by controlling them in a way that makes them powerless to change. This seems unfair to me.

What would it take to defeat the elite? Many lives have been lost because they couldn't afford their medication. It was needed to prolong their life. What a tragedy for this to happen. Life is precious. To make someone happy, you wouldn't want to take away a special talent or gift that a person has.

It doesn't make a person above the law, no matter what he/she does with his/her power. No one should have the power to throw their weight around. If you're in the lower class of people, such as being low income, in poverty, or homeless; you don't have to demean or disgrace them. These people are powerless to fight against the attacks they're up against. Due to their lack of education, they can't advance into a higher income bracket. They can't make it through the course, since they can't afford the high cost of tuition and supplies. Money does talk. By bullying them and threatening their lives, it's such a shame that the ones in power can attack the lower class.

Due to having a lot of money, or status in the political arena, the people in the higher class shouldn't be leaders when they think only of themselves. They want to destroy the economy in every way possible, making it miserable for everyone.

It would be essential to take away their power. They need to be responsible for their actions. They should be stripped of their dignity when they abuse their power.

Those people who have a lot of power need to practice compassion toward those less fortunate than they are. It's not the fault of those less fortunate; they are the way they are.

If the defeat of the elite were to be accomplished, imagine how much better the world would be. Compassion is a good thing. The lower-income people shouldn't have to worry about their health, housing, dental, vision, or what they can afford to wear. They are people too, and they should be treated with respect in all aspects of their lives.
