2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Establishment Dems Promise to Block Sanders Proposals, Says They're "DOA" [View all]Todays_Illusion
(1,209 posts)56. The worst thing about the libertiarn take over of both the Republican and Democratic
parties is they are liars and of course the ones in front doing the talking are covering for the ones paying for the take over. Fronts for all the billionaire libertarians that does include Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, and all the tech billionaires and nearly everyone on the Forbes 400 list of richest Americans. And their plan/goals, they really sincerely believe we should just let them manage the nation, the people and our individual lives. Our role is to get out of the way so they can increase their wealth and power.
They do have that major problem, what to do with the 7 billion people on the planet when they really don't need many people for labor anymore, just a few servants.
