Oh my god cant BELIEVE what I just heard Cenk Uyger just say

[Ken Burch]

80. There are probably individual people with humane progressive values with some sort of jobs

on Wall Street or at corporations...but are any of those folks ever going to be in major decision-making positions in the corporate world(at least while still hanging on to most of what they stand for)?

And are the people you know the ones who make the levels of donations our party insiders would be adamant about keeping access to?

I ask that because I've watched what that part of the system has pushed for, without let-up, without any compromise, without any sign of regret, since 1981-the total rollback of any notion that the non-wealthy are of value, that anything other than high short-term rate of return for investors still matters, that any sense of the common good should be preserved.

There's one party that embraces that endless push to self-interested ugliness-we are supposed to be the party that says "no-people matter as much as profits, the common good matters as much as gain for the few, those who aren't billionaires are not failures, are not worthless, and are not expendable". If we as a party are not going to say THAT...if we just settle for making the existing ugliness slightly less nasty for some...we aren't going to get majority support and win elections, because the vast majority of "winners" in the post-1981 world want to strip the planet of most humane values.
