The last Gilded Age was followed by a Progressive Era and this one will be too. People will only take so much. America has self-corrected in the past and we’re going to self-correct again.

I hope that you are right but I worry that this time we are not going to pull out because we will have a fascist government.

Have you heard of the Dark Ages? Just because you believe in sweetness and light doesn't mean people can't get stuck in reactionary idiocy.

Not as long as money is allowed to buy and influence politicians at the scale it is today.
The enemy in my opinion is not the Republicans. They have their 1950s misguided beliefs and they fight hard for them. Corp. Dems are the real enemy. They talk a middle road approach and fight hard for nothing and in the end we get excuses. Elect progressives like Marianne

But just how long will that gilded age last? Til I’m dead. This is cute, if it didn’t mean hundreds of years of oppression.
And the last Progressive era was smashed to bits by a global war
