You could argue that Regan was the spark. 9/11 was the fire. Trump is the ashes.
if it wasn't regan, it was the great depression. if it wasn't the great depression it was the civil war.
we didn't start the fire. it was always burning since the world's been turning.
Truth is?
Game's been rigged from the start.
We got the new deal it of the great depression though. It took Republicans many decades of dedication to dismantle what we gained from that.
my post was basically just rhetorical, but you have a great point.. i wonder what "new deal" they'll come up with in the wake of this guy.
It was the stagflation in the seventies. That's when the rich managed to switch the economy ~~back to exploitation mode~~ to neoliberalism, and Reagan was their tool.
Or Nixon.
9/11, horrible as it was, just gave them a good reason to put into law some truly undemocratic shit they probably already had waiting in a drawer for a while.
Trump is the fallout making us sick.
An era of oil abuse.
Who is the Phoenix?
Either socialism or barbarism
