Thank you for sharing your perspective. I'll continue to digest it as my workingclass place_in_this_world continues to shrink.

Honestly, both capital gains and waged income taxes are too low. During the most-prosperous times of this Semiquincentennial Country [USA 1946-1984], the toptier taxrate was >50% (through democratic and republican, non-AIPAC, presidencies). At least on paper...

I agree that Sanders is too polar to accomplish anything, but his voice serves as a starting point for systemic problems.

For those of you that don't still live in "the hood" [like I choose to remain]: if only you knew how bad it is. Americans are literally starving; jobbed moms literally offering to do my dishes/lawn/anythingwinkwink.

I voluntarily remain celibate.
