The Love Child born of the union between Citizens United and McCutcheon:

One party with two wings that are allowed to differ on social issues that keep the rabble busy trying to decide between them, but that owes its soul to Big Money (Big Oil, Big Banks, Big War).

Wall Street thinks they can dictate Democratic politics with their money.

Unfortunately, we do not know that they are wrong. Surely if the Democratic Party continue to acquiesce to their wishes because of purse-string issues, we are lost. The slow way to Hell still leads to Hell.

Where does the 99% make its stand? Now? In two years? Ten? Every year we spend doing the bidding of the corporate world leads us that much further down the path of irremediable harm to the biosphere and the general welfare of the species within that.

The Corpo-Dem path takes us to hell in a handbasket. The Republican path omits the handbasket.

I wonder when the 99% even buys a clue.

I feel like it's Germany, 1925.
