transformation into what was foretasted by Political Scientist in the late Fifties and early Sixties,and that is a Totalitarian Party. What we are seeing is a carbon copy of the Nationalist Party of Germany circa 1930 and beyond.

With all the financial stress on our families,you can see were these Hate filled Politicians are garnering their support. Similar to the Religious Nut Jobs of the late Thirties with their Revival Tent Meetings.

I had a very interesting listen to a discussion this morning which gave the history of capitalism. I came away with a much more clear picture of not only the republican party, but the importance of this election. It may be the most important election in 300 years.

They only care about keeping the ratio of employers to employees big enough to yield great wealth to those who own the companies, and no one else.

Once we recognize this, it is then no surprise that these republicans act as non-humans.

I should add that part of the Democratic party now buys into the notion of inequality.


Here's the talk. Starting around 20 minutes, you will learn things that no course will ever teach one.
