(18,883 posts)....of the corporatist rich and powerful. The DNC is completely coopted by Wall Street and monyed interests. The only real difference between DWS, Hillary and their ilk, including many here on DU, from Rubio, Jeb and Paul Ryan is their stand on a narrow range of social issues. Important to a certain extent, but when the people are being crushed and exploited economically, who gives a shit? When someone looses their job due to TPP, then looses their house and can only find low wage, part time work to feed their family and their family members are killed or maimed in endless wars of empire, those issues become meaningless and DWS, Hillary and Paul Ryan merge into the same caricature of useless political apparatchiks doing the bidding of the oppressors. At least HRC is willing to toss some crumbs, while her rich donors devour everything else. The Republicans won't even afford us crumbs, thus the only real difference.
That said, if it comes to it, I will vote for HRC simply because I've not missed an election in 35 years and social issues are all we have left. Sad, really sad. The Republicans are devouring themselves and my party is quickly becoming the new Republicans.
