Democrats and Republicans

America is basically a one party state, the Corporate Capitalist Party.
The Democrats are the left wing of that party, the wing that says even if the country is run for the benefit of the rich, the poor should at least get enough crumbs to survive.
The Republicans are the right wing of the CCP, the wing that says fuck the poor, let them die.
That is an important difference.

My belief is that the Republicans have gone too far, and that all simple minded people who voted for them are going to turn against them, and that in the next few years, people will be marching in the streets, the same way the civil rights movement happened, and i look to the students to be the ones to get it happening.

President Obama has been replicating the history of the 1930s, when the British and French tried to appease Hitler, as Obama is trying to deal with the right wing fanatics, who will never get enough to satisfy them, and will ultimately self destruct.
