Hillary is running a campaign that virtually promises to screw the middle class. That's the best we can do isn't it?
The insideous nature of our political monopoly is that as long as the right wing keeps pushing farther and farther to the right, conservative carpet baggers will step inside the vacuum left behind to promote themselves as the more reasonable of two very fucked up choices.
That's what the Clinton's third way represents. Rich conservatives want to keep all the social benefits of a liberal worldview without giving up their elite and privileged economic advantage creating an underclass living in poverty and lowering the quality of life for 300 million people.
It seems impossible that any Democrat could cheer for that. By promoting Hillary, you are promoting the destruction of American communities by our corrupt election process. The Wall Street amnesty, prison population and job losses to Mexico and Asia are enough to prove this.
How about resigning your moral obligation to the false choice of lesser evils? Lol. Not quite. That's just a lazy intellectual device hiding the fact that you are just fine with exactly the way things are and you dont give a damn about the world around you.
By not wanting to change the way things are, you are actively contributing to the declining relevance of what it means to be an American. In its place we have an odd sentimentalism and false patriotism manifesting itself in an embarrassing spectacle of lies and insincerity by the two presidential frontrunners.
