(2,561 posts)...are weapons used by the one percent to destroy the middle class and effectively end democracy in America.
In a post in another thread, I urged DUers (and anyone else) to oppose the so-called Trans Pacific Partnership (definition: trade agreement to effectively prevent any opposition to the continued looting of America).
Find and work with others, even when they are of a different political persuasion, and get the public to understand that the TPP is nothing more than NAFTA on steroids.
While two responders to my post essentially agreed with it, one responder claimed I was being irrational citing some irrelevant statistic about U.S. trade as a smaller fraction of GDP compared with other countries.
The point of my post was to get people to stop arguing petty details and start thinking about some action to take to deal with the situation.
Too many threads on serious issues are hijacked by fools or trolls and become mired in petty personal attacks preventing serious discussion for action.
This petty bickering is preventing DU from providing a meaningful response to the war on the middle class by the one percent.
It is past time for debating the details. The details have been thrashed out ad nauseam. It is time to develop a strategy to fight back.
