Since she worked with right wing megadonor Sheldon Adelson to ensure that sick people in Florida would be sent to prison where they belong for using medical marijuana, she knows a thing or two about "republican money"!

The message is that there can't be any progress or fairness as long as govt is corrupt.

I keep getting a vision, a wh press conference, where with genuine sadness President Sanders announces a string of indictments against fill-in-the-blanks

And again, that isn't all of them. As long as someone isn't making money from, or are partial owners themselves of the multi-national corporations overriding the will of the people, I have no issues with them.

Keep your money. Just don't make it from denying climate change, starting wars, imprisoning my neighbors, poisoning our commons or assisting in electing republicans and were golden.

The pie is only so big and they've been hording our share for the last 40 to 50 years. Capitalism is a system and within that system at any given time is a certain amount of capital... and they have taken too much IMO.. so we need to take it back IMO
