May 2016

and isn't clear. Having said that, I don't need any damn lecture from someone supporting Clinton or politicians like her. Wages haven't grown in decades for most, inequality has exploded along with private debt, infrastructure is collapsing, de-industrialization has spread, schools and poor communities have been abandoned. Previous generations inherited a country in far better shape than the one you are handing over to the young. Why you think you and others are in a position to lecture on how it's done is beyond me, you've screwed everything up and the young will have to clean up the mess you've created.

"leaders on the left you now scorn?"

Sorry, who are the leaders on the "left" you're talking about? Don't for a second claim the Clintons are "leaders on the left", unless you want to re-define what it means to be on the left.

"I haven't read the article, don't need to, I have seen enough of this tripe over the years."

Shocking. Head back in the sand for ya.
