    Reagan changed the political dynamics in America. The Democrats were a pro-labor party prior to the 1980s. Afterwards they were pretty much lock step with Republicans, and by extension the oligarchs, into today, because the “Reagan revolution” opened their eyes to the fact that bribes by unions, lets be honest, could never come close to the bribes offered by the owners that hated the unions. And in proudly corrupt America, thats what you become a politician to do, get bought.

    Since the 1980s, we’ve had no opposition party on economic policy. All we get to vote on is divisive social issues, largely exasurbated by our crony capitalist economic system, by design.

    Do you want to be a wage slave subsisting in service to the owners until your death with or without gay marriage?

    That is the extent of American freedom since the Reagan Revolution. With the side benefit of keeping the peasants at eachother’s throats instead of looking up.

    Our Democrat Senate and Democrat President literally passed a law to bust a prominent union strike last year. There is no vote an American peasant is offered that would be in their corner, only slightly varying degrees of against them.
