30. The DLC is all about $MONEY$,
and work to concentrate MONEY and POWER into fewer VERY RICH hands.
In this aspect, they ARE Republicans.

However, the DLC doesn't care who gets an abortion, who buys a gun, who you sleep with, or what church you go to. On the social issues, they can masquerade as Democrats,... just don't fuck with the money.

The DLC altar:
(if you are DLC, you automaticly support)

*less Corporate regulation and accountability

*MORE taxpayer money diverted to BIG BUSINESS (HillaryCare, the MIC)

*MORE outsourcing and "Free Trade"

*Destruction of Organized LABOR and Environmental Protections

*MORE privatization of the Public Commons

In the above Economic aspects, the DLC are Republicans, but if you want to have an abortion, the DLC doesn't care.


"There are forces within the Democratic Party who want us to sound like kinder, gentler Republicans. I want us to compete for that great mass of voters that want a party that will stand up for working Americans, family farmers, and people who haven't felt the benefits of the economic upturn."---Paul Wellstone
