This article nails the Two Big Parties pretty clearly. They are also right about a Third Party. However, not the Constitution, Libertarian, nor the now pretty much defunct Reform party will be able to get their collective crap together enough to offer a serious challenge. The Greenies and the Commies never had anything to get together in the first place and are an even bigger joke than the Democrats.

Ain't gonna happen. Not until things get a LOT worse. Which, unfortunately, is bound to happen.

I have to disagree. The author goes on about "globalism" but he appears to blame corporations for it--- the sure sign of a leftist. Yes, Marx thought free trade needed to occur before communism could. Bust so what? He also thought "capitalism"-- characterized by the rule of law, property rights, the absence of centralized control of the economy and free trade--- in other words the AMERICAN system-- needed to be adopted around the world before communism could occur. Marx was wrong on these point as in so much else.

The reason we've made it's profitable for businesses-- not just corporations-- to hire illegal immigrants is that socialist practices such as the minimum wage, mandated health care benefits, family leave and the Social Security ponzi scheme have increased the price of hiring American workers.

Getting rid of those practices cannot occur within the structure of a third party--- there has never been a successful theird party in America and never will be.
