You do understand those massive Govt programs to help the rich are pushed through by BOTH parties.
The only difference is which rich people are receiving the corporate welfare.
Matter of fact these days with Biden helping the military fat cats as well as his green corporate cronies and his infrastructure cronies he is doing the rich proud these days in a lot of Corp. areas. He has even surpassed Trump (not in spending) but his crazy fraud filled, wasteful PPP.
I’m not a democrat but thank you for so plainly stating the corruption and admitting how the system works. If there’s one thing I can’t stand more than an establishment neocon Republican, it’s an establishment democrat. The former doesn’t pretend to be an ally of working class people.
We live in a wholly corrupt oligarchy where the bottom 85% of income earners have a near zero impact on policy.
The money that is spent is actually very insidious. The reason you give freebies to the very very poor, freebies that are ridiculous.. is you can weaponize them. We need programs that help the working class.. people who work. An example of real leftism that would help would be free state college for all. You go to plain buildings and get an education with zero frills. Think Governors state not Purdue in west Lafayette. And yes I’d limit it to functional degrees.. you’d pay for art history
Well when you give away razors to homeless people in Portland, you can double back and say “see mr working class guy who wants programs that help people who WORK.. we can’t have that. We can’t have someone like Henry Wallace (Bernie was a fraud)… because then you’d be endorsing THIS.”
The best thing to do if you’re an ultra wealthy fake lefty is to bastardize leftism by turning it into a farce. And they have.
I listen to Jimmy dore.. a real lefty who spends 90% of his time railing against the democrats.
If you’re looking for a good book that will expose today’s suburban professional democrat for what they are.. people who pretend to care about people but really don’t.. read listen liberal by Thomas frank.
Of course I don’t like the democrats lol. I mean a real lefty who knows his history could argue that Woodrow Wilson might be the worst person in the history of the us government. The similarities between Wilson and Biden are striking.
