You mean the Republicans and the Democrats?
I guess that leaves us with Bernie Sanders, maybe.

Bernie Sanders, definitely. (Please don't tell me something bad about one of the few politicians for whom I have any regard.)

He's a damned *socialist* is what he is!

Too bad we don't have more of them.

Hell, if we learned anything from the last time the world went thorough the kind of upheaval we're about to endure, it's that we're going to be seeing a lot more Socialists on the one hand--and fascists on the other.

I can imagine the Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan crowd staring at them in amusement from their office windows, watching the police take them into custody for blocking traffic for a few minutes.

Ha ha ha.

Thank you for your "let them eat cake" post. Wall Streeters should have their heads handed to them.

Well, to be fair, it wasn't so much a "let them eat cake" post as a, "well of course the aristocrat should be allowed to fuck out daughter! He's an aristocrat! That's the way it's *supposed* to be! Nothing can be done!"

Think "craven and cowed" rather than "thoughtlessly entitled".
