America doesn’t have Capitalism; only Bailouts.

@Marlin Williams the empire term refers to "colonialism" as how USA abuse/exploit other (developing) countries for their resources to enrich their domestic corporations and/or individuals, like European empires before ww1. That's masqueraded as "foreign aid", direct action by US military and/or CIA or just monetary domination through institutions such as IMF which dictates the rules societies under crisis from heavy economic stress has to implement or suffer, which they would be better off of in the long run rather than the damage caused by neoliberal policies will cause for the society

@@MolotovAustralia Bailouts exclusively for the rich, and corporations, paid for by the poor majority through force.

yeah this is no longer about voting against, removing, or anyting else it is now about complete overhaul dismantle, and rebuild!

To quote Harley Schlanger (who said this about Jeffery Sachs in the nineties)"There's no such thing as safe Sachs!" LMAO

Yes there was. Goldman Sachs was very nervous when Bernie Sanders almost won. There were dozens of things that a Sanders administration could have done against Goldman Sach and the company knew it. This is why I don't respect Hedges, because he told everyone that the candidate who ran on breaking up the big banks was a fraud and not to work to get him elected. If Sanders wasn't good enough for Hedges, then I can't imagine a candidate who would be.

Amos, Hedges voted Jill Stein in 2016 and has said he’s voting Howie Hawkins in 2020.

I think Nick did a very good job as well. I must say I was very impressed with his passion. And of course Marianne. I saw a lot of Jox complaining about how long she went on but, she's very knowledgeable and worth being patient and listening to. I thought that's a visit from Jesse was poignant. I would like to have seen someone spend more time collectively however, maybe at the end of the convention, taking the time out to discuss what it's like to cooperate together despite certain differences such as what Jesse pointed out. It's so easy to give up just because there isn't an exact match for us all, politically. What we really needed in closing was someone that helps to explain what it's like to stick together on basic issues... something that we can all agree upon. As much as I enjoy Miss Turner's packing, I didn't like the way they convention ended because I felt that key opportunities were missed such as what I'm pointing out here.

@@walden6272 Social science research shows that there is a much better chance of avoiding eventual authoritarian rule and fascism if demonstrations can hold to a non-violent approach.

So so true!

They've all been systematically indoctrinated, dumbed-down, fed hedonistic consumerist garbage, and countless other ploys. All by design to keep the lie going, and keep the bloodsuckers at the helm of a ill-fated sunken ship. The masses in general are typically to stupid to realize they are stupid. Dunning-Kruger Syndrome is rampant all intentionally thanks to government, corporations, and the rich elites. A willfully ignorant people are easy to stick in a field like cattle to fatten up, and be bled dry. Then shipped out to the slaugherhouse once they finally expire, then replaced en mass. Easy to control, manipulate, deceive, string along a cliff blindly and obediently without question. They'll even thank this so called institutional establishment of a socially constructed society for it...all This happens at home, family, relatives, friends, any standard member of society, so called education system, work places etc. Pretty much everywhere you go or look they are brainwashed, and they do the brainwashing for the rest. Once they've gotten it down to this just being born ensures you'll be subjected to their mercy. Which is exactly why children have it so bad, it keeps getting worse yet. By the time they hit 18 they will have been churned out from this machine of social conditioning into a good little sheeple. It takes years to break free if you do, and undo the damage of education system alone...

@Orphan Annie yeah, I meant to say This one gonna be extra special

Yes.

Which is precisely why such people are likely to never be. Anyone who should is exactly the type of ones the government, career politicians, corporations, and rich elites avoid. They'd sooner silence them if it came down to that than ever permit them such an opportunity.

I agree. Just like Douglas and Lincoln should have been running it in the 1860's

Most jobs won't even allow you to work a 2nd job, let alone work around each other in order to be able to work both. Even with 3 jobs you can very much so still be struggling. At that point you'll end up just slaving away 24/7 until you grow old and die. Having done nothing but further enrich the master, for fear of the lash. Toiling away endlessly in the masters fields until they discard you, or death takes you. In essence you essentially didn't live at all, but were wasted away gradually in the pursuit of life. A life you were robbed of , deprived, denied up until the very end. Through no fault of your own imposed upon you by force, and necessity. The only crime you've committed is having been born, which you didn't even have any choice in the matter.

I worked for this company that was brought out from another company in 2005. The CEO of our company walked away with 8 million dollars for making the deal. I asked an coworker “Does it not bother you that a CEO can walk away with 8 million dollars?” Because you knew outsourcing was next to make up for that 8 million dollars given. Which means we was going to be out a job. She just shrugged...,and look where we are today. GREED and APATHY....
