For a few hundred thousand $ they are willing to sell their constituents down the river. The wealthy "donors" realize million$ in profits.
The system is broken. Unless we mobilize and show them the power of millions of regular citizens who are being destroyed by their greed then it will get worse.
We need to dwarf the civil rights movement in manpower and we can.
Instead of one race of people who were being destroyed, we now have 80% of Americans, encompassing all races and genders who are being destroyed by the greed of "our" representatives. We need proven progressives who know the system and are ready to march and protest against that same system.
We don't need violence. rather we need to fire all of the enablers who happily use violence against protesters.
Rid America of the sociopaths who now run the circus and profit hugely by playing by their rules.
Our rules are what founded this country....get rid of the spying, prosecuting whistle blowers (install brave whistle blowers in every aspect of our government. These are the people who sound the alarm that the system is broken).
Take all money and money incentives out of our governance. Maybe hold a national referendum on the politicians in office and lay down OUR rule of the land.
It is to the point that our civil servants have become our masters. Their masters are money.
America must change now. If that means (and it does) taking over D.C. and seizing the accounts of the wealthy, then so be it. They have done this to us for decades.
Is there an honest Progressive leader who wants to stand with us literally and be the new George Washington to America?
If so, we need you now.
Bernie? Elizabeth? Grayson? you have your foot soldiers and we are desperate to get it right. Please, just one of you (ALL would be great). Your country needs you.
FDR knew these truths. His family got wealthy with the Robber Barons, but he was not a sociopath or a "status quo" man.
he took action, taxed the wealthy, employed and empowered average Americans and his 2nd bill of rights was going to cement these needed changes.
Obama, I THOUGHT you were that person but you proved to be just a good politician (liar) whose constituents were the same as Bush's.
We will not get that leader from elections. We get the choices presented to us by the wealthy. That is why we must have a great leader who is willing to start outside of this very broken system and if we all do our part, then that leader will become a needed cog in a fair system.
