So let's elect a corrupt, money-grubbing liar who will keep things exactly as they are
Here’s what I can’t square about Bernie Sanders’s speech last night. On the one hand, he rails against “the movement toward oligarchy that we are seeing in this country.” He complains that 47 million people are in poverty, and that people are living on starvation wages. He says that the middle class is being destroyed.
But then, he thanks Barack Obama and Joe Biden for “making progress” against all this, in spite of just about every other line in the speech that seemed to suggest these problems were getting no better and possibly worse. Are Obama and Biden making progress or not? No, of course they’re not. Economic growth is sluggish. People have left the work force in record numbers. Things are not getting better at all. But if Sanders doesn’t pretend to think Obama has made progress, he can’t possibly make sense of his plea for people to vote for Hillary, who will double down on every ineffective policy Obama has pursued.
But America “has always been great.”
” Bernie to DNC: Pretty much everything in America is unjust and awful”
Yet the mainstream media called Trump’s speech “dark”.
And putting THE GOVERNMENT in charge of everything would make it fair.
Just like the democrat primary was fair, right Bernie?
Results don’t matter to liberals. Just as long as something makes you FEEL like you are doing something. Even if the results are the opposite of what is intended, they will NEVER admit its failure and repeal it.
Talk about a “dark” speech, they don’t get much darker.
They know d*mn well their 'fixes' aren't fair, that's why they exempt themselves from almost everything we have to endure.
The American system is going downhill slowly.
Millions people are somewhat better off than in 2009, mainly because they are working much harder than they could or did in 2009.
We are in the last stages of real estate and stock market booms. Obama will probably leave office before they crash, but the crashes will be mainly his administration’s fault.
The 1929 crash was also the result of money made too cheap (to support the gold standard of Great Britain).
Here’s my advice - stop trying to make sense out of liberals.
Try Cuba, Venezuela or North Korea, Bernie!
Dark! So dark and dystopian!
Pretty dark there, Bernie.
If hitlary gets in it will be.
Well then bernie, why don’t you just pack up your shriveled up old socialist ass and move to a place more suitable to your liking, say zimbabwe, china, or vietnam. Those are all a communist/totalitarian paradise. You and all of your supporters would feel right at home.
I would contend that it’s mostly the Democrats fault.
The cause of this is libtard policies. To decrease exploitation and increase the wage share of consumption and increase economic equality requires increased demand for labor, which requires increased saving and reinvestment in the business, and decreased net consumption by business owners, which requires a compelling future time frame preference and a pro-business environment, which requires low taxes, low regulations, increased security of property, and less inflation, government deficits and government spending.
To quote my mother “Life is hard. Life is unfair. Grow up. Get over it. Do your best. No whining.”
