One change. More crony capitalism. The lobbyists are back in business. Saw that Biden is going to hire about 40 of them for his administration.

Russki! What about Biden's pursuit of healthcare for all and his work toward a better environment? Oh yeah russki cares about $$$, is confused about them, and well russski... Biden has made it clear he is not going to pursue healthcare for all. The rest of your post is gibberish. http://www.cnn.com/2020/11/12/...vid-powell/index.html As long as corporate capitalists control the US government it looks impossible to avoid the economic devastation that's coming. ------------------------- “It is the heart of US policy to use fascism to preserve capitalism while claiming to be saving democracy from communism “ - Michael Parenti Edited: 11/13/2020 at 07:40 AM by RustyTruck |

A Slate grey apartment. Working for a pittance. A shitty car if you are lucky, but most likely you get a bike. No money for a surfboard or a skateboard or a fishing rod and you can forget a boat. Some bland clothes made by the state. Fresh seafood or a nice thick t-bone...nope, that's out. And all this sacrifice while those at the top live like kings.
Thanks, but no thanks. ------------------------- I was right. |

Never allow the words Republican, and fiscal conservative to be used in the same sentence ever again.
Especially now that the GOP/ trunts hitched their wagon to a loser who ran the country like one of his failed businesses. Dems once again have come in to clean up their mess. ------------------------- So if you are a surfer I wish you the prosperity that allows you more time to pursue the salt water dream, and the true happiness that comes from warm water, clean waves and the companionship of your fellow surfers. If you are an internet troll just spewing bs then f off. |

"GOP senators say they expect to refocus on curbing the nation's debt and reforming entitlement programs starting in 2021, as the Congressional Budget Office estimates that the debt has surpassed the size of the American economy. "

Tpap. Your actions speak louder than your words. If Biden was lobbyists and crony capitalism then you would be for him.

We are just fucked. The oligarchs installed Trump to be a smoke screen while they un-did all of the "regulatory state" that at least made a show of policing stock trades and financial shenanigans, protecting the environment, etc... Look at was Trump/McConnell did to SEC, FCC, EPA, etc... Big bonus was that they got to loot the Treasury in a big way with the McConnell/Ryan tax cut without putting one dime of that back into the productive economy. Then they got to do it again with the federal non-response to covid. They did a big orchestrated sell off. Then they got Congress to pass a stupid untargeted stimulus and they have siphoned that off and used it to buy back the stocked at cut rate prices. That whole game just took our retirement accounts for a ride down and back up while they extracted value from the whole thing. A proper response to Covid would have spent all that stimulus money directly paying restaurants, theaters, etc... in areas of community spread to idle. Nope, they fucked the small guy and boosted the shit out of Walmart, Home Depot, and Amazon. Shut down a restaurant in Topeka and send stimulus checks to Fargo. I'd say that was stupid but I am pretty sure they did it on purpose. Fucking Pelosi and Schumer are complicit. I think they are stupid and got played. But a communist revolution is no answer, nor is taking actions that support what McConnell and Trump have been doing. You can't play "both sides are just as bad" if you honestly compare the Obama administration to Bush or Trump.
