They make their money catering to us.

I forget who described corporate media as "billionaires hiring millionaires to tell the working class their problems are caused by poor people."

Well-paid corporate media talking heads' only job is to deflect blame away from systemic problems and the wealthy elite's role in economic inequality.

We all see people begging for money when were out and about, but never see the multiple homes that the wealthy have, while we ourselves are trying to scrape together a living.

I know the Democratic party is sometimes horrible at messaging, but the gulf between these two scenarios needs to be addressed!

oops I meant Trump.

Will they hold him responsible? If yes, ok. If not, skeptics are correct.

Putin's puppets

I appreciate having reasonable people, speak to Trump.

toned down Hitler, it might've been a good use of bullshit. Trump and Hitler revel in glory and attention. I don't expect this new love affair to last, however. But if it does, it will be because Trump wants to have a half-assed legacy. He wants adoration above all else.

If these two clowns wanted to help they would examine how we lost twice to a demagogue.

April 29, 1938
To the Congress:

Unhappy events abroad have retaught us two simple truths about the liberty of a democratic people.

The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is Fascism—ownership of Government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power.

The second truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if its business system does not provide employment and produce and distribute goods in such a way as to sustain an acceptable standard of living.

Both lessons hit home.

Among us today a concentration of private power without equal in history is growing.

This concentration is seriously impairing the economic effectiveness of private enterprise as a way of providing employment for labor and capital and as a way of assuring a more equitable distribution of income and earnings among the people of the nation as a whole.

THE GROWING CONCENTRATION OF ECONOMIC POWER.

Statistics of the Bureau of Internal Revenue reveal the following amazing figures for 1935:
