Americans have been trained to limit our political imaginations, to expect too little, to simply accept that life is an economic struggle for 80 per cent of our population ... and that somehow that's normal. It is not normal. And it's not necessary. It's the product of a 40+ year chapter of trickle down economics that will end if we decide to end it. #disruptthecorrupt

My share is that Democracy was hard won insight, a flash of deep brilliance, a distillation of wisdom derived from millennia of us surviving the suffering that is inherent & inevitable when those that govern are from a self-selected-few.

One quibble, I think it's more the result of 40+ years of anti-democracy bad economics in the conservative style, not just the "trickle down" version. Another version is quite happen with it staying where it is and not trickling anywhere.
