Americans have been trained over the last few decades to expect so little from govt, propagandized to believe govt actually helping them is a bad thing. It’s a tragic surrender to corporate control & a betrayal of the ideal of govt “of the people, by the people & for the people.”

1) i had 2 share this pic, it's a favorite. Conservatives push the socialism vs capitalism bs when WE KNOW they go hand in hand... We make trillions and how it's spent matters. During the industrial revolution change was wanted& needed. Which inspired people like Karl Marx.

I supported UBI during my campaign and I support it still, but it’s not the be-all and end-all that’s going to make all things right. It’s just a piece of the solution, and without the other pieces it’s not enough.
