Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush...
Now President Scott Walker?
Could it be?
How much worse could it possibly get?
There is no light at the end of the tunnel. We are on the road straight to hell.
Wall Street will keep on dishing out this crap as long as we are willing to take it.
Hillary Clinton versus Scott Walker.
Do you suppose we will be hearing: "You have to vote the lesser evil."
Oh, ya; I know... now is not the time to be talking about a working
class based progressive people's party--- the consequences of a Walker
presidency are just too much to bear... or is it bare.
We are told we can't get along without the Democrats.
The phony "liberals," "progressives" and "leftists" will be telling us
Hillary Clinton is a liberal with a progressive agenda as they tell us
how much they would like single-payer, real living wages, jobs for
everyone and what a great idea Tom Paine had with his Basic Income
Guarantee and how drone warfare is better than dying U.S. soldiers and
how we should just overlook how all these Democrats back the Israeli
killing machine.
If only we have patience real reforms and peace are sure to come.
Even real liberals, progressives and leftists appear ready to accept
legalization of marijuana as the only achievable victory possible as it
is easier and less controversial to advance the legalization of pot than
a National Public Health Care System, National Public Child Care, real
living wages based on cost-of-living, Basic Income Guarantee and a full
employment act. Don't talk about and advance these social programs
through a new party and then sit around smoking joints complaining we
don't get any of this.
Hippies without politics, hippies without struggle is what passes for liberalism, progressivism and leftism.
I think it is pathetic more "activists" will turn out for a
demonstration to legalize marijuana then will turn out to demonstrate
for peace.
Minnesota's Democratic Governor with a Democratic
super-majority says the main controversial issue in the upcoming
legislative session will be the legalization of pot.
Needless
to say, Governor Dayton doesn't want his campaign promise for a real
living--- non-poverty--- Minimum Wage to become the point of controversy
in this legislative session when the Minimum Wage comes up--- he wants
another poverty wage passed and wants to see us jumping for joy that
whatever passes is better than the present $6.15 an hour.
Like suckers, activists will take Dayton's bait on marijuana.
And the claim is: Marijuana doesn't affect the thought process.
Then again, we have a Democratic Governor who admits he is an alcoholic
who can't shake the bottle and who acknowledges he suffers from severe
depression while using heavy-duty psychiatric drugs but says he is
opposed to the legalization of marijuana.
What a circus.
Wall Street just loves the show.
