Assuming the title to be accurate, what is a good way for the working class (90%+ of all humans) to save and succeed in this current environment?

Then where is the communism and what’s the point of money? Seems like a capitalist society with a bit of socialism… see any European nation, really

You seem to think that money and capital are one and the same; they are not.

Do European nations have “a bit of socialism”? Has the working class wrested control of the state from the capitalist class? Have they abolished private ownership of the means of production? No, in fact they’re becoming more and more neoliberal, where the working class has less and less influence on the state.
