It’s the wealthy…the Republicans, the Democrats…they are just public facing representatives of a democratic system that was long ago usurped. The wealthy gained enough control in both parties to completely control the agenda of each branch of government. Total regulatory capture. You can’t really democracy your way out of that. I’m all for trying, but they’ll always do what they did to Bernie, and if it starts to look like you’ll actually win and enact real change, they’ll do what they did to MLK/JFK/RFK/Fred Hampton.
