    Both parties are very serious…

    …About keeping this economy and system exactly as it is, as they bicker over social wedges that don’t meaningfully impact quarterly earnings expectations.

    They’re both paid well by the same oligarchs to do so.

    If you wanted to see them scrambling to pass real legislation to protect the government from an incoming administration, you should have elected a leftist. You’d see Democrat and Republican reps holding hands, having sit ins, and desperately chanting we will overcome if an incoming administration was promising to dismantle for profit healthcare, for example.

    Don’t worry though, they’d never let that happen. They have all the tools they need to prevent such a disaster as they see it. Their bribes would dry up overnight if they lost control of the narrative and their plebs.
