This nation can't go long like this. People are hurting and dying. Children have been sold out to the highest bidder. Our schools have been sold out. In my state, business people have taken office to promote their own private concerns that make them more $$$, and to hell with everyone else.
And if you listen to the news, everything is fine, awesome even.
The USSR had Pravda, such amateurs.
And the divisiveness exists even here, as it did when there was a REAL left. I seem to remember the 'leaders' of the movement then, not recognizing the women's movement, distancing themselves from the Panthers, etc.
The left has never been very organized, but then the left has been fighting $$$ and power for a looong time.
Unfortunately, I'm afraid the worst is yet to come.
