29. What has Warren said that you disagree with?

You imply shes to left for you, and you are more in line with centrist, could you please tell us what that means? What has Warren ever said that you would say to yourself " shes to far left".

Lots of self proclaimed Centrist on this board as of late but being a centrist today when the country has moved so far right on every issue except Social issues is really disappointing, could it be that Democrats today have finally given in to Capitol marketing and lost their skepticism of business, you know its just marketing Right? Just look at taxes and wages 40-50 years ago and you will see business not only did fine but had their greatest boons. I got news for you if every business got their way ( lower wages, almost no regulation, extremely low taxes) their would be almost no one left to buy their products and we become Mexico or Russia.

You have to ignore the bitching of rich people who own the bully pulpit because they are only thinking of their own personal temporary best interest and would destroy themselves taking us all with them when they all get their way, In order for supply to survive their must be demand and capitalism requires a huge pool of working poor to even work, someone has to pay the wages and taxes so business survives, since they benefit the most from this it should be them. I know business owners want to dream this isn't true but facts are facts.

If you don't want a future where we have a Russian economy please stop being a centrist, it might have been OK 40 years ago but today we are to far right for that.
