Stuffing it back into the closet won't solve the problem, unfortunately. It will just hide it. Not really sure how to solve the root problem.

I don't think we can solve the problem, there's too much money and power involved. So what's left? Keeping it to down and off center stage. We cannot legislate morality, there's no forcing people to be moral or ethical. We can penalize, etc., but it's still there. We're just going to have to understand there will be waves of racism, resentment, and a "401k liberal" of sorts as a target for resentment.

We *DO* have to find ways to make it so that "people who like to work with their hands" can have families, earn a good living, and have good lives. If we do that there's less of a target, but there will always be an other. We can't get rid of it because it's how humans are.

And to get them good lives, we have to deal with the our oligarchy - we're failing at that and the "people who like to work with their hands" are helping the oligarchs.
