A program for real change...

What we need is a "21st Century Full Employment Act for Peace and Prosperity" which would make it a mandatory requirement that the president and Congress attain and maintain full employment.

Drain the swamp or create a cesspool?

Donald Trump said he was going to drain the swamp but he has turned the swamp into a racist, fascist cesspool.

Will Democrats push to imoeach Trump... for real?

Democrats are playing a very deceitful, self-serving game with us. They are making noises about impeaching Trump in the same way they promised to impeach and prosecute Bush and Cheney. When the time came they backed out. Now they are going to tell us we need to give them a House and Senate majority in 2018 so they can impeach Trump. Let's get real here. We have had over a third of the Democrats in the Senate voting to approve one or more of Trump's cabinet choices--- all of whom are incompetent extreme right wing racists. Can we really expect such Democrats to vote to impeach Trump?

"Live" facebook?

I'm thinking about doing a regular "Live" Facebook chat.

Maybe call it something like "A Working Class Voice... let's talk about the politics of peace, socialism and the economics of livelihood."

Would anyone listen?

What would be a good day and time?
