What neoliberals call “too far to the left” is anything that challenges the right of corporate wealth to set the agenda for the country. They are the economic extremists, having destroyed the middle class & pushed the vast majority of America’s wealth into the hands of a very few

I wonder if taxing and spending irresponsibly would help?

Taxing the wealthy and *responsible* spending indeed would help.

Do you recognize that this applies equally to Dems and Republicans?

It applies to both but not equally. Progressives within the Democratic party are trying to change it.

The vast majority of Americas wealth has always been in few hands. The hands change, as times change. Innovation is key. At least our wealthy employ thousands of not wealthy to build a healthy overall economy when politicians keep hands off money.

That’s what’s ruining our party, progressives are in the Democratic Party, hate the Democratic Party, work hard against it—while they are too cowardly to go after Republicans.

Progressives are the ones trying to take the Democratic Party back to its traditional values. Progressives are Eleanor and Franklin; the neoliberals are the DuPonts and Morgans.

And what about the loud suction noise you hear - its tax dollars being sucked out of our country and going to foreign lands
