Echoes of Enterprise

2. I fear you are right as usual H20

And I wonder how far away we are right now from American feudalism. Maybe we are already well into it.

People are actually still buying the notion that Reagan's "trickle down" economics is good for the country. The Republicans see Reagan as a God, the last great Republican President.

Members of my own family continuously vote against their own self interest. The fear is if they don't, the welfare cheaters are going to take away their hard earned money. They don't realize that the wealthy 1% already has.

Our "narcotic nonsense" on Faux News causes otherwise intelligent people to hate anyone but the most rabid republican. Whereas Rush Limbaugh used to only have followers in the radical, crazy bigoted fringe of our society, now I hear him referred to on national news as if what he is saying is the truth.

I do see reason for hope. Barack Obama was elected president twice because record numbers turned out to vote. Obamacare is law.

Some people I know who used to only vote republican voted for Obama because the thought of Rmoney as president was sickening to them.

I don't think the republicans have learned anything from the last election. I think in the next election they will prop up another lunatic candidate who will lose for the same reasons Rmoney did.

So I'm hopeful. But I would still like to know what we can do now to help our current situation.

Suggestions?
