Yeah what this guy said about the hidden Democratic capitalist agenda that’s been happening since Andrew Jackson but Nancy Pelosi is horrible at hiding but just a bit better then the GOP!

Seriously I think that’s what I read, honestly I got lost around Nancy Pelosi and her near $200 million net worth.

Look only the most harden Party member will cry foul as the majority of folks understand that “yes even the DEM loves capitalism, yes the former hippies turned CEO love capitalism and yes so does Bernie Sanders”

It’s still a good read, enjoy it – PB/TK

“Inclusive Capitalism,” Nancy Pelosi, and the Dying Planet – By Paul Street / July 21 2017

A recent Washington Post and ABC poll finds that just 37 percent of Americans think that the Democratic Party “stands for something.”  Fifty two percent say it’s about nothing more than opposing Trump.

The 37 percent is right. The Democratic Party stands for something, alright.  It stands for the socio-pathological system of class rule and environmental ruin called capitalism – and for capitalism’s evil Siamese twin imperialism.

So does the far more openly right-wing Republican Party, of course, but that’s fairly common knowledge.  It’s more complicated with the Democrats, who like to pose as being “on the left” while carrying water for Big Business.

It’s nothing new. Long before the rise of dismal, dollar-drenched neoliberal era Dems and Robert Rubin associates like Bill Clinton and Barack Hamilton Project Obama, the Democrats stood in the lead of the profits regime. This goes all the way back to that savage Indian-killer Andrew Jackson and up through that quintessential corporate liberal Woodrow Wilson, New Deal hero Franklin Roosevelt (who boasted about having saved the profits system during the Great Depression), the handsome proto-neoliberal Jack Kennedy, the blood-drenched Lyndon Johnson, and even poor old Jimmy Carter – the Christian peanut farmer whose cabinet was stocked with corporate hatchet men (If you want some basic historical background on all that, read Lance Selfa, The Democrats: A Critical History [Haymarket, 2012], and Howard Zinn, A People’s History of the United States)
