    Pretty much, it’s the very natural consequence of a deregulation and the an-cap philosophy. We’ve seen this before in america during the 1900s. It’s the whole reason Teddy and FDR ended up getting elected.

        We can’t because we have corporate propaganda news outlets that will work tirelessly to frame this “new FDR” as a fascist communist racist woke elite conman.

        Pick your outlet and that will determine the words chosen to disparage them.

        Hell just look at the supposed “liberal media” treating Bernie Sanders when he looked to be taking the lead in the primaries, suddenly every story was “Bernie loves Castro! Bernie loves Cuba! Be afraid! He likes communist stuff! Boo! Ahhh! Oh no it’s Bernie!”

        You’re about to elect Trump again. I shouldn’t worry about there not being enough bad economic news.
