    There is an old adage I heard in the factories I spent my life working in. ” A company that gets a union deserves a union” Maybe the country that gets Socialism deserves Socialism. I know that my wife and I started with nothing not even education. We worked hard often 2 jobs and a decade of night school we eventually retired at the age of 50 with enough money to do so. I do not think if we started today that we could repeat it. I think the next depression will either start a Race or civil war or maybe the WPA and the CCC will make a comeback. I think which alternative is chosen may depend on the next election.

    Raul. I just wanted to say thank you for this site. I have been reading it from time to time since before you changed sites. I often have found wisdom and knowledge in your words and insights. I just recently became a member. From you insight early on about disinflation and limits to growth to your art choices that for many years I paid no attention to but now look forward to seeing – Thank you

    I think the Dems had better try to find the fire that Bernie inspired in the young and/or screwed over. Trump got that vote because more of the same Hillary was not the answer. Bernie may well have won in 2016. The Dems need someone who can inspire a Bernie style revolution and get people fired up about positive change. Someone in between Bernie and Biden. If you’ve read any of my other post I am a fan of Gabbard because of the anti war anti military spending and the progressive ideas. I was pretty much a lifelong republican but I think the pendulum has swung way to far to the right. The endless wars and the financial collapse in 2008 were the final straw. I would never vote republican again. Trump should be careful with the racist statements with some of his followers on many of the sites I am afraid he may get one of those women hurt or killed. I think in the long run his ploy will backfire Nancy and Omar were hugging today. He may just heal the riff instead of open it. The enemy of my enemy and all that.

    I agree Dr. D the dems did not listen to the people in 68 and did not listen in 16 probably in a bunch of other elections they lost. They need to put together platform that makes sense. and get rid of the super delegates and backroom deals. Biden is not the future- same old shit. hold your nose and vote. There are good ideas from some of the candidates. I hate to say it but they need younger people that will think about the future instead of trying to bring back something that is not coming back. Never ending growth is not a sustainable model. it is time to rethink how things are done. So many things are terribly inefficient. shipping food from all over the world – we started trying to buy from local growers with in 100 mi radius for many items it is cheaper and much higher quality -streamlining healthcare to get rid of all the parasitic extras. Changing the structure of lobbyist. Stopping the money spent and lives lost and hatred that develops for wars in places we don’t belong, Even with the holes in the new green deal at least it is a starting point . We have solar panels and I have to say they are impressive in the power they generate the payback is way better than a bank and way safer than the market. The money we spent blowing up other people and their stuff would put solar panels on every home in the US. The dems if they have any hope need to put together a platform based on what people really want and what makes sense for future generation. do you think china is thinking beyond 2020 I am quite sure they are. In my humble opinion – . dump anyone older than me because frankly after 62 shit just does not work like it used to, including the brain see I am just rambling away here.

    The main stream media hate her the dems hate her the rep hate her. even the view and Cobert have dised her.Jim Kunstler is correct America cannot afford the to be the military of the world.

    reason enough to send her a buck.

    Tusli Gabbard may not win but at least if she gets in the next set of debates the idiotic never ending wars will get some TV time . That subject will not get any tv time from the MSM. Almost 5 trillion spent on war from 2000. The Warmongers are making a few very rich and the rest of us poorer or dead. The DNC requires 130,000 donors so even a $1 donation gets here in the next debate.https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=tulsi%20gabbard%20for%20president%202020&epa=SERP_TAB

    Could not agree more John Day. The warmongering is just insane a waste of resources and lives. What could our world really be without it? It is worth sending Gabbard a buck just to say fu to the DNC. Even the liberal MSM is shutting her down and I mean shows like Cobert and The View. Here is an interesting article on it the comment section has several video clips of Gabbard being diminished by the people you would think would support her views. https://www.commondreams.org/views/2019/05/08/corporate-media-target-gabbard-her-anti-interventionism-word-they-can-barely
