The income inequality is as bad as the 30's; and the hegemony of the oligarchs is as bad; and the middle class and unions have been decimated; and the jobs are low paying service jobs; and we are the richest country with one of the worst health and educational systems. And we need to address global warming realistically and we need to stop fight bullshit wars and giving all the monetary breaks to the plutocrats. We must dramatically restructure out society to comport with modern social science's knowledge of what the ingredients are for a modern humanistic society like they have in the Nordic countries. The hegemony of the oligarchs must be broken; and that is what Bernie and Warren are running on and why the progressive's support both categorically. In FDR's 1936 speech where he says: "we have learned organized money is as bad as organized mobs."; "and he said they hate me and I welcome their hate." Same trip totally with Bernie, which is why the progressive movement backs him so strongly. <<Message #431059 from Alex MG at 2/26/2020 8:09:43 PM The situation today is EXACTLY like 1932 not at all, the unemployment rate was 24% in 1932
