Response to Moostache (Reply #30)

Sat Mar 8, 2014, 10:14 AM

43. Moostache, I agree with a lot of your OP.

Bernie Sanders is way over 30 (that worries me a little) but he is the most proven, "get it done" Progressive we have in politics.

IF he were elected, he would force many progressive changes.
As for Obama's lame duck perception, I agree. He has proposed a decent budget but his proven willingness to go corporate and give away the meaningful parts, is cause (IMO) to worry.
I agree that our entire political (and much more) system is chaos and surreal.
I have just been trying to see a future where that changes without violence because all enforcement branches seem to be
occupied with maintaining the status quo rather than defending the constitution.
I also agree with the previous poster (in a way) that we need to elect many (all possible) congress people that are progressive (not necessarily Democrats though, some Green and Independents are more progressive (must be sane though).
"It's a mixed up fucked up world."
Any politician still harping on the deficit is (IMO) our enemy. I do not want my grandchildren in debt but austerity (like trickle down) does not work, except for the wealthy.
