| 53. Long overdue. The two corporate parties are corrupt. |

I, for one, certainly hope that Trippi is right. The Republicans and the Not-Quite-As-Republicans have been running things for far too long. Though I think that it will take time because this country is too backward for a truly liberal/left party to take hold in the near future.
But, something's got to give. The rich and powerful are putting more distance between themselves and the rest of the country. Sooner or later the bills are going to come due and the house of cards will collapse or compromise.
FDR saved the country from revolution in the '30s through compromise, but I sure don't see any FDR's out there.
