Bernie and social spending to promote product for sale jobs are needed.

The world is experiencing a replication of the roaring 20s. Every country including the third world and developing countries are creating billionaires at a record rate. There are more companies producing multimillion dollar cars and mega personal yachts and mega cruise ships that when money is adjusted to value is more than ever before. GDP can't support the spending. The working class the world over is either wage stagnant or wage falling. The markets are in an extended bull market and market cap is approaching if not already passing real market value. If something isn’t done to get more money into the hands of the working class to spend then GDPs the world over will stagnate or shrink. Once that starts there will be no incentive to buy stocks. All the multi quadrillion dollars of debt will start to lose service. Probably collapsing economies but it can be avoided if emergency spending is started now to put money back into circulation increasing velocity by working class spending. All the world’s working classes have to be treated as top priority and put back to work earning money making products to sell. Economies are losing consumption power.

Can items be removed from the internet?

During talks about the UAW Rush Limbaugh was talking about lucrative auto workers pensions. He said “I just can’t see people getting paid for not working”. Probably a year or so later I wanted to get that quote. It was gone and no way could I phrase the query would bring it up. I was thinking that what he said could apply to people collecting interest and he wanted it removed.

Warren Buffet said in referring to the working class and the economy:”you have to put money in the hands of people who will spend it.” Seeing how that could reflect badly on the rich and their foundations and trusts he probably wanted that removed.

Is their a way to expunge unwanted quotes or is it just an anomaly that some disappear?

I have tried, although casually, to read Bloomberg's platform

I have been to several sites that have a lot of general information. One was an expansion of his site to images. Does anybody have the name or link to his actual campaign site that explains his plans?

Since I learned programming in FORTRAN 57 years ago on a computer the size of a small car I know

there have been advancements in a system that transfers data at approximately the speed of light. So keeping that in mind I think the delay now is getting tired worn out caucus workers to agree on a single unified excuse for the debacle.

Dow Jones Industrial Average, the DOW, closed today at 28,256.03

Does anybody really know what to do with that information. The real average of the 30 DOW stocks is about 136. The DOW advertised 28256.03 comes from multiplying the real average by a multiplier that DOW devises. I have researched casually for years trying to find out how the DOW is used. When the real 30 DOW stock’s average is 136 what information is gained by multiplying it to get 28256.03. Is it to support the bull market by influencing trades with the ever growing DOW while the real average at 136 has been relatively stable. If anybody knows what the DOW means and how to apply it and would share that would be a great public service.

Win the battle lose the war. Keep exposing negatives about candidates

and that gives voters more reasons to not vote or vote for Trump. Promote the positives and give people reasons to vote. I have said the wars in the East can be won by giving people reasons to live instead of die. Same with our political system. Don’t present a campaign wounded candidate exposing reasons for republicans and undecided to vote against or not vote at all. Present a candidate that represents a Democratic Party working for good and a candidate that represents their self for working for good. Michelle presented that idea with her don’t go low, go high.
When the winning candidate is up against Trump that would be the winning strategy also. Promise to finish the good things Trump promised. Health care, veterans, good paying jobs. We can say that historically the Democratic Party has had success in all those areas and the Democratic Party is best equipped to do that. Go high and sustain the ridicule that will come no matter what we do. We win that strategy because Trump’s own party prevented him from doing it. Trump had high Republican approval but no support from his party. e.g. While he promised health care with no exceptions his party worked to limit all and any kind of healthcare.

Doing the same thing over and over expecting different results is insanity. That applies to giving the Republicans four more years to fulfill Trump’s promises.
The same also applies to attacking Trump. It didn’t work against him in his first campaign and it won’t work against him this time. Promising to carry out what his party wouldn’t let him do puts Trump in opposition to his own party.

Democratics go high offering opportunity. Let Republicans go low and that will expose their opposition to all the good Trump promised.
