I just listened to him for a few minutes. He seems to be saying that there's no difference between Democrats and Republicans. He's wrong. What you hear from the right wing crazies all day long is that the Democrats are evil or at least as evil as the republicans. They aren't. There is no parity there. There's nothing on the Democrat side like the propaganda machine that the republicans have. Fox news and 90% of drive time radio is nothing but one lie and deception after another.
Look at the difference between what the Democrats have done for the working class vs what the Republicans have done. Democrats gave you Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid. The Republicans fought every one of them tooth and nail. Rosevelt pulled us out of the depression. The Republicans fought that tooth and nail. Obama did as much as he possibly could to get the poor and working poor medical coverage and the Republicans have fought him tooth and nail every step of the way and they're trying to completely kill it at this moment.
The Republicans have wrecked the economy several times. The great depression and the great recession when Bush W wrecked the economy. Remember, Bush W had been trying to privatize social security. Had he been able to do so, his economic collapse would have wiped out everyone's social security accounts. Even so, Bush's economic collapse was still the greatest theft from the working class in history.
When Obama came into office, we were losing EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND JOBS PER MONTH - and when he left the economy was well on it's way to a complete recovery which of course Trump has taken credit for.
The evil in government isn't equal. There are crooks on both sides to be sure, but if you're working class, there is no question, the Democrats are far more likely to try and help you than the Republicans are.
If you want to fix government, you have to GET THE MONEY OUT OF POLITICS. Only Bernie Sanders has ever even seriously discussed this issue. As long as we have a political system that operates on a system of legalized bribery which is commonly known as LOBBYING, we don't have a chance. We must do away with lobbying but that will only happen when the people have had enough and demand a constitutional amendment to overthrow the ruling known as Citizens United. Citizens United was put forward by the Republicans to screw you and future generations. It made the dirty practice of lobbying a thousand times worse than it had been before. The Democrats are far more likely to help pass such a Constitutional Amendment and get the money out of politics than the Republicans are.
There has been a systematic effort to brainwash Americans and it's been fairly successful. By using Freudian psychology, the men with the money have managed to convince tens of millions of Americans that it makes sense to vote for a party that works against them at every turn. I've had a life long interest in psychology and I've studied this for years. As an example of what I'm saying, I'm going to post a link to a documentary called The Century of The Self. It's about how the nephew of Sigmund Freud, an American, created the science of advertising, which in essence is the science of manipulating the masses through the use of psychology.
These methods work, and the proof of that is that every year, corporations spend billions of dollars to convince you and me and everybody else, to buy products that we either don't need, or may even kill us. (smoking). It's not a giant leap to use that same science to convince people to vote for a party that works against their best interests by using a steady barrage of propaganda.
You may or may not be aware that when Richard Nixon and Rodger Ailes first conceived of what eventually became FOX news, the working name they had for it was GOP TV. All FOX news is, is a Republican propaganda machine. It was first conceived as being a Republican propaganda outlet and it still is exactly that. The motto "Fair and Balanced" is a tongue-in-cheek joke.
