Making short term profit maximization for multinational corporations the bottom line of our economic functioning, w/ the US govt as their handmaiden, is a veiled aristocratic system. We repudiated aristocracy in 1776 and we need to repudiate it again. #marianne2020

Then claim what you really want! It’s my experience that whenever I think other people “probably wouldn’t get it,” they usually already do.

I have a grasp of the moral issue involved; articulating that is the part I feel is mine to play. I do realize $100B is way too low. I originally put on my website $200B & I realize that that should be the minimum even discussed. $500B should not be considered an outrageous idea

We need to aim higher than just changing the conversation. The status quo perpetuates itself by co-opting disruptive language.

So let’s do a little math here. A matrix of corporate conglomerates stealing billions of dollars from the public treasury doesn’t really have a problem with a candidate saying “Let’s throw a few million to the working people,” because it provides cover. #notocrumbsyestojustice

Candidates saying they won’t take corporate PAC money is pretty hilarious in the cases where they’re entering the campaign with so much corporate money already in their coffers. Heck, they don’t need any more! #smellthecorporatecoffee

A presidential candidate talking about lifting up working families without mentioning exactly what pushed them down to begin with is treating the symptom but not naming the cause, setting us up for another symptom. Being experienced at doing that is not the experience we need.

Lincoln spoke of “the angels of our better nature” and he did pretty well politically, seemed to have some political gravitas and all that.
