The majority of worker wealth in the United States is due to corporations... let’s not forget that.
Conservatives yes, POS GOP... hell NO!
Corporate skeptic is not corporate hate.
True, and you’d think the Bernie Bros would jump onto that.
But they are all brainwashed and following orders.
But most of us own or work for SMALL BUSINESSES.
Giant corporations are globalist in nature.
Well, Google ARE Evil.
This is why Conservative Inc. has to go.
Bernie Bros are often too invested into identity politics are are unable to see that they’re being used to dismantle the last vestiges of New Deal era labor protections.
Otherwise they, Republicans, are craven and venal and will go along with anyone, just to get along. So long as they can cash in on their share of the graft just like Hunter Biden but not get caught at it, they're happy. That is in fact their natural state of being.
“The majority of worker wealth in the United States is due to corporations... let’s not forget that.”
Pretty much all of it. But we do need to be skeptical too...corporations are NOT inherently good, they’re inherently greedy...sometimes that aligns with what’s good, but often not. For example, thanks to them losing their credibility due to their tooth-and-nail fighting against seat belts, we now have airbags blowing up in people’s faces. And the list is rather endless...just look at vaccines versus the low cost treatments, for example, or Boeing’s latest aircraft disaster (where the government stupidly put their trust in Boeing to put out a safe product...not realizing that Boeing is now run by bottom-line paper-pushers).
On the other hand, I understand the Globalism end too - the corporations didn’t move offshore because they wanted to, but because they felt forced to, given our government regulations and the unions. If we try to bring back those jobs, without fixing the regulations and the unions, our quality of life will take a dive...perhaps it’s worth it, but either way, it will happen.
As to the Republican Party, we are stuck with it, but it doesn’t mean we can’t take it over. If we try going 3rd party (and thereby split the Republican vote), we play right into the hands of the Democrats, basically handing to them a decade of easy election victories.
Health insurance should not be tied to any company. The marketplace and the insurance we choose should be independent of whatever employer we hope to have. Employers should be able to incentivize, but not dictate, one's insurance.
The unions are responsible for that historic connection. Part of wage negotations years ago.
There is no uniform meaning of conservative movement. Every person sees it different, and sees what they want in every politician they hate or favor.
And the majority of corporate wealth is due to regulations, political payoffs and grift.
True, but let’s also remember that the majority of the loss of our civil liberties, and the destruction of our national culture is due to corporations. Corporations that are openly globalist, and favoring Saudis and other islamic despots, the EU reich, and literally even communist China.
The modern corporate mindset laughs at the concept of loyalty to the American nation and the flag that was widespread a few short decades ago.
Today, you cannot be loyal to most corporations AND the American republic at the same time. That is just a hard cold fact.
It is time for MAGA party..the GOP is a waste of time
“I actually think that there’s a lot of broad-based consensus that can now be around ending these endless wars, that can be around challenging corporate America and restoring a normal American way of life”
This “broad-based consensus” won’t matter in the least, because the totalitarian minority is willing to break all the rules to impose their will on the rest of us, and it doesn’t seem that any institution meant to stop that is functioning anymore.
