The fix is easy. Guillotines. Corrupt politicians. CEOs. Anyone with a net worth over a certain amount.

Off with their heads.

It wasn’t called the Reign of Terror for nothing dude. It was an awful idea that created a lot of innocent suffering.

Guillotines…

I would remind you that the people who started the reign of terror by calling for and lopping off the heads of the nobility ended up taking La Monte-à-regret (The Regretful Climb) themselves.

Well yes, because what really happened was one upper class being replaced by another. The workers/lower class was exploited throughout, and that never changed.

Politicians are supposed to be representatives of the people, but no matter where you live right now, they’re owned by corporations, and champion corporate interests. Corporations are not our friends. Thus by extension, politicians aren’t either.

Thats why we should strive to replace human leadership with A.I. Which of all the jobs is gonna steal from people, it migth as well steal the jobs that could be benefitial to everyone but arent because humans are weakminded and corruptible. A.I. is gonna redistribute resources as needed in a human level, not in a cold USSR way, and it should build a network to exploit resources in a sustainable way. Of course im talking about a singularity level A.I. and not necesarily the language models or machine learning that we have at the moment (Althought imho they could do a better job than our actual world/corporate overlords), and the fact that we are not working on something like that is probably concerning since there are problems like global warning that the current leadership is just not gonna solve and to replace it with more of the same is just gonna continue the cycle.

As a Klingon, this feels like an acceptable answer.
