The role of govt should include protecting people from capitalist overreach, yet for the last 40 yrs they’ve actually facilitated it. Our job now is to reverse the trend. #NewProgessiveEra #MoneyOutOfPolitics

Sorry, it will never ever happen. Electoral politics are clearly a dead end.

That's why conservatives wanted to dismantle government...they didn't want any regulations to rein in corrupt capitalist predators. "Big government" was code for "we don't want any legislative oversight to limit plutocratic corruption."

yes that is the role of the state in a bourgeois government. To protect the capitalists at the expense of the masses.

It’s corporatist fascism sitting on top of communist ideals but nice spin.
