A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Rather sadly the only things that have ever significantly reduced wealth inequality are wars, revolutions and plague. All of these affect poor people much worse than rich people. If you’re interested in making people’s life better it’s most effective to work on policies that make the worst off better off (like immigration and trade)
