Elizabeth Warren, Not Hillary Clinton, Should Be the Next President of the United States

239. Economics is the linchpin and fundamentals of politics and by function cannot be a small

piece of the conversation.

There are virtually no political issues that were not either created by economics or are presently driven by them.

I think some Democrats are damn stubborn and foolish about this and being bullheaded about being silly leads to a wiling blindness that allows the needs, hopes, and functional power of the people to be ever eroded and curtailed.

Their is no freedom or progress for those mired in necessity and little political power or time to exert what little there by people struggling to just get by.

There are no serious political discussions that can ignore economics, to do so risks ignoring the woods for a part of a tree to the point that it is far closer to the truth to say politics is economics than to say economics is a section and especially a small piece. Such a statement is beyond naivety and stuck in 8th grade civics to the point of functional ignorance or willful distortion in an effort to mislead from reality.

Shit, this is probably why we fail in key areas, we try to discuss politics while tiptoeing around economics (or outright ignoring them, quite impossibly).

Your small piece perception is a huge distortion of reality. Seldom can one drill down a single millimeter on any subject without hiring money and resource allocation. I know many folks find such boring but it is the meat and potatoes of virtually every issue including race relations, women's health, education, and certainly war and peace.
