And if you are poor working class, you are of no position, even if you don't realize it yet.
Until Citizens United is reversed, I feel it will only get worse. And I am growing more doubtful by the day that it will happen in my lifetime.
We can spit vitriol about one man kicking a couple hundred to the former football player but the reality is the corporations and billionaires have most of these ass hats bought and paid for before they step foot into the capitol.
Democracy is a thin cloak that some are still buying.

I've said in the past that I've got a personal connection to Mr. Keeley - in that he grew up with my cousin. On my mom's side.

I love my cousin. He's a great dude, has led an interesting life. He's a meteorologist in Oklahoma, which means that he's got a particular interest, expertise, and experience with tornados

Except that in the current politics of the US, it's a minority that is attempting and succeeding in imposing a radical right wing consensus and political reality as the status quo. They literally want to move the United States backwards to before the great depression or earlier in some aspects.

Happy 4th, y'all. When in the course of human events and all that
