The Partisan Divide on Issues

They decide what politicians and political causes get the campaign funds, and those politicians and cases are the ones most amenable to the class interests of our economic elites -- cheap labor toiling under brutal management, lax regulation, monopolized markets, low taxes, wars for profit, and privatization of everything possible. They seek whatever they can get away with, and that means possibly things not quite nasty enough to provoke a proletarian revolution.Life simply gets harder, and for what?

With liberals, life gets better as technology advances. People get better pay and working conditions instead of being squeezed as workers and bled as consumers. I question that we are more reckless with personal spending; we are just as capable of savings and investment as right-wingers. (If anything, those "investors" are more likely to get fleeced in hustles of coins and precious metals as are people on the Right. I actually made some good investments in the spring of 2009... and it is a good thing that I did because those at least bought me a car when I lost everything else with my father in a nursing home).   

People with solid income can spend everything that they have -- but people with low incomes can only deny themselves what they want.  We liberals do not all have the same culture (as should be shown in our ethnic diversity). Honest [pay for honest work is the best that most people can hope for -- but that is adequate so long as one has skills.

Oh, by the way -- Donald Trump is a horrible person. You misread me when I said that I "fired" his bad TV (The Apprentice) show with my remote control much as I could "fire" a baseball game on the air when one team is down 10-2 in the fourth inning. I have never been an employee of Donald Trump or been on his TV show. I prefer to be around people who don't brag about grabbing women by their "kitty-cats". Trump has proved too amoral, immoral, and narcissistic to be a desirable President.  I do not blame him for my economic hardships. I blame a disability.

The cheap labor( cheap illegal immigrant labor and cheap foreign labor here and abroad) are mainly on your side and being largely protected and politically represented by your side these days. You bought in even though you'll never see the financial benefits that your so called elites, politicians and their corrupt officials are going to receive from the economic elites supporting your side. I mean, Bloomberg is going to invest a billion in the effort to defeat Trump and kill phase II of the Chinese trade deal for China these days. You guys and your insatiable need for a liberal white knight and a liberal government to protect you from evil Donald Trump and the evil Tea Party these days. Chuckle, chuckle. What a joke, they have you pegged too. You'd have to pack up and move to a sanctuary state to receive some sort of benefit from those taking advantage of them. I don't employ cheap illegal or do business with cheap immigrant labor. I employ Americans who aren't cheap or even close to being as cheap and do business with American business's and American customers. Yes, we've seen the liberals flex their muscles and we seen their groups flex theirs too be neither compare to what 60 million us could do to them. I mean, who are we?

One other thing, like you with Trumps show, I fire liberals on TV all the time. I watch them acting like punks, stuck up elitist snobs, displaying their prejudices and slobbering all over themselves and telling each other how great they are and so forth. I watch them clammering to hope that something bad happens and salivating over the possibility of someone more knowledgeable/ more capable of destroying Trump siding with them or being coaxed into doing something really stupid related to themselves and their political interests for their sake and so forth. Like I said, we'll see which Republican Senators need Republican votes to remain in office and which think they'll remain in office without them these days. Hey, the liberals got the cheap impeachment they needed to stay in office and get paid to do nothing for a couple more years.
