How Did We Get to the Point That We Could Consider a Communist for Pr

Bolded -- No that's for certain. You're no student of history either. And your batting average falls off from that point where it comes to discerning current events.

The recession of note didn't even hit the US until it was in full swing across Europe. Even then it was the moronic machinations of Barney Frank, ordering the financial district to give loans to people who had not a ghost of a chance of repaying, that tipped the equation. The real head banger is in recognizing that Democrats didn't learn a thing from the housing bubble burst. Just give the people stuff. Along comes Bernie Sanders and you guys are all-in. Along comes AOC and you're all-in. From my perspective liberals would back Satan himself if he ran. The only qualifier is to oppose conservative values and for libs, it's all good.

The people, who BTW know that their federal government is of, by and for the people, proceeded to elect Republican majorities in the Congress and then proceeded to install a Republican President. The unelected deepstate and Democrat Conference of the Congress then proceeded to go to war with the people, and tried to rob them of their government. And you're on here and I'm sure other places. cheerleading for the left cause and pleading your case as if it made any sense at all or any merit whatever. You know where would freeze over before you'll sell a true conservative of a thing.


Trying to get the edge by playing the race card huh? The US isn't perfect and it will never be perfect. That doesn't change the fact that anybody can rise from obscurity and become President. Obama ring a bell? We have equality of opportunity and freedom of religion here. People are supposed to work. And people who're not born rich are not oppressed.

Really...what do you call the 28 billion sent to farmers this year to subsidize the loss from tariffs (socialist in their own right)? Massive tax breaks to fossil fuel industries? Or at the state level, investing in failed Aluminum plants? None of that is free market economy, and the amount of money invested could help millions of American citizens rather than bailout few.

Batting average a little higher than yours. You may want to review your Eurozone debt crisis facts: "The Eurozone debt crisis is a multi-year debt crisis that has been taking place in the European Union since the end of 2009."

MLK was an American who fought for poor people all over this nation. No race card; I hate you drew that connection.

The amount of money at the top of the ladder in this nation mirrors the corrupt era of the late 1800's. Since you know your history, you'll know that a massive progressive wave pushed through the nation ushering in many changes. Some can be seen as good and others as monumental failures, but one thing that can't be debated is the fact that inequality and corruption caused a fundamental revolution.

Personally, I would rather see a mini-controlled revolution redistributing some of the wealth on healthcare and education and infrastructure to improve society. Another 20 years at this pace and you may be right, an extreme govt will be in our forecast.
