Reject Third Way propaganda, *especially* now.

87. I'll tell you what Americans want....

They want to have a Jobs Bill.

They want taxes increased on the rich and the money to be raised going into public works projects.

Republicans are dead set against that.

Not only for what it will cost the rich but because they are in a panic that the government can be seen as actually being something other than pure evil by the general public. If people actually see friends and family getting a good paying job to modernize the city and see real results popping up all over town they will reject Republican claims that the government has never created a single job.

Republicans are screaming about the debt.

That argument might have worked 50 years ago when most people didn't own credit cards and took pride in not owing anything to anyone but these days Americans don't feel shame at being in debt to a rich bank. They eagerly declare bankruptcy on rich banks and they've seen rich banks steal homes. There is zero sympathy for rich banks and people actually take pride in getting some of that money back.

There is no question that Americans want the wealth that went to the top come back to them.
