Well said. It seems to offer something for the left but then takes it back.
Forget it Jake.
Its Vox.
What Cruz says here is 100% truth. Nothing wrong with taking liberal talking points and steering yokels in YOUR direction!
It’s the Democrat formula for success.
Entitlement Army to provide the votes.
Crony Capitalists to provide the campaign dough.
Most of the 1% are regime affiliates.
Nonsense. He’s merely pointing out what the Democrats have mostly hidden from people with the help of the media. MOST of the billionaires and the rich and privileged, and those who run Wall Street are Democrats, and most of them give big bucks to crooked Dem politicians in return for favors.
The Koch Brothers are a major exception, and even the Koch Brothers donate plenty to Democrats.
Look SOMEONE in some political party, needs to stand up for American workers.
Legal American workers. Both parties have been selling off American businesses for so long, that China now exports more than America does.
And is (rapidly) growing.
Someone needs to stand up strongly for American workers. It has been an entire generation, since either party stood for American workers.
Bring back American jobs, and make stuff right here.
Vox = Ezra Klein
” but, at least rhetorically, their diagnosis of the problem...”
No. At *most* rhetorically.
No one on the MSM finds it surprising that Chelsea Clinton buys a $10 million “starter” home in Manhattan...
Why don’t any links to Vox require the same type of labeling that SATIRE posts do?
Vox isn’t a news site. It’s a parody of Pravda, just without the intellect. Please stop posting their stuff. It’s pointless.
zzzzzzz
How much did you pay Jim for the site? What are the taxes on a transaction like that? What are your plans for the site in the future? Are you taking us in a different direction?
Well excuse me, that doesn’t change the point that nobody is standing up for America anymore.
Everyone, in both political parties, is completely sold out to China. China meanwhile keeps on gobbling up, what used to be America’s factories.
America needs to bring back jobs to America, and stop subsidizing China.
China is now exporting more than America exports. And is rapidly growing.
GOP stand up for American workers.
You won a majority. Use it. Bring back American jobs.
Who do these college students and screaming masses believe the President caters to, associates with and does his fundraising from? Was it not in his own interest that his policies have created more one percenters, even as he has decried their wealth publicly?
Certainly, it must be the same 1% he loves to hate when he's speaking to minorities and those he labels as "middle class."
And, when his term is over, do they not think he will join the Clintons in amassing a fortune himself?
But the fact of the matter is that the rich DO get richer in a Democrat administration.
The rich get richer in a Republican administration, too. But the middle class and the lower class get richer, as well.
Widening "income inequality" is almost always a function of Democrat policies. The rich can always deal with them -- even profit from them. But the middle class gets crushed by higher taxes and greater regulation.
In the fifty years since the start of the War on Poverty, the proportion of Americans under the poverty line has retreated only once -- during the Reagan administration.

It’s all in place and ready to go:
