OK, Mr. Blue, your job is to bring poor old PB up to par with me financially and emotionally. The issue with blues is that blues seem to actually believe that reds are STUPID. Who are going to be the ones in charge of redistributing our wealth and who are going to be the primary recipients of our wealth being redistributed? I'm thinking the blues because it makes sense knowing the blues and the way the blues only tend to think about themselves and what other blues want and so forth. I'm sorry to tell you this but the blues have actually earned some of their so-called stereotypes. Bob, there was a day when Henry Ford owned Ford Motors and walked around his plant and socialized and directly communicated with his employees. Well, all I have to say is that that time was a LONG, LONG time ago. Bob, I have never been able to go to a government bank and receive free government money just by asking a government banking official for more money. Have you? If you have, please tell me where the bank is located.

I do not as much think reds are stupid as that their culture is into stereotypes.  At that, you are not that much a Trump Base sort of person, so you have different stereotypes.  The one you are spinning in the last paragraph shows all blues believing that all people should get the same amount.  False.  I may think that food, shelter, retirement and health care are promised in the UN Declaration of Human Rights.  I may have advocated that we honor what we signed.  But that is a long ways from saying that all men should get the same amount.  The above is not correct about me, is not correct about most blues, and is not believed to be true by most reds.

But of course you don't really listen to blues so I cannot correct your stereotypes.  Trying its seems futile.  I may ask other blues to listen, but if what you do is repeat what they know to be falsehoods, they will not listen long.  It would be silly.  I do believe that between demographics and increased evidence for environmental issues will eventually bring the vote more blue.  

I am not saying it will be easy or soon.  You are one of the people who has impressed me that cultures and stereotypes are incredibly stubborn, extremely slow to listen and change.  I also believe the spiral of violence not to be escalating, that the see saw is passing power back and forth, that people of both parties are getting tired of their establishments.  Thus, I have opinions very different from most extremists who anticipate violence and succession.  It is not happening.

And Pbower is correct.  There are currently no Federal banks save the Fed.  Your 'facts' are delusional too.
