"We must rebuild radical socialist movements that demand that the resources of the state and the nation provide for the welfare of all citizens and the heavy hand of state power be employed to prohibit the plunder by the corporate power elite."

As I said before I agree with most all he says when pointing out the atrocities of the power elite, how could anyone disagree? However his vision of the end game is socialism and state power in the hands of intellectuals like himself who know what's best for us. Power corrupts even the best intentions of humans.
Our country was blessed with a God inspired Constitution complete with checks and balances to insure liberty for all in a republic of equal protection under the law giving congress the power issue our currency. There has never been an equal to this document in all of history. Problem is that the Constitution is no longer adhered to and the one remaining champion of it can not even best the support of Iowa, America's heartland!
Chris is right, we are doomed Tweet
