re: #171 Belafon
It depends on who we let control it. And yes, the GOP is getting the first stage, but we can fix that. It’s a bit like any transition, especially because so many are invested in not changing it, and I mean those that will lose some of their authority under any new system (the wealthy in our case).
they have an ideology behind their inconsistent and even contradictory talking points: dismantle government, sell off its resources and infrastructure to the highest bidder and allow corporate donations to have an undue share of influence on politics.
We cannot allow that to happen. It has already cost us a big point off our international credit rating.
