(6,002 posts)living on less with more to pay for everything. When our gov't represents oligarchy, there is not democratic party, there is no republican party, there is only OLIGARCHY. Are we going to act against the takeover, or are we going to allow it & cheer it on?
This is our fight. It doesn't matter who wins in the election, if we no longer have a voice. That's where we are now. Our voice has been silenced to empower oligarchy interests. If Bernie Sanders does not win the nomination, I fear for our country.
Poverty is growing, along with it, anger is growing. The boiling point is here, all we have to do is look at Baltimore for an example of what inequality has wrought.
It is going to require all of us, a social movement, that is truly growing today, to change things. I'm not going to empower anything that does not represent my values.
It's time to put an end to this illusion we are being fed, the revolution will not be televised.
