How Both the Republicans and the Democrats Have Joined Forces to Screw You

It would be an over-simplification to say that American elites of both major parties do not give a rat's butt about the average American's life or well-being, but not much of an over-simplification.

Basically, your leaders are beholden to super-rich billionaires and large corporations, both of which are drunk on asinine political and economic ideologies that absolve them of taking any meaningful social responsibility. So long as Wall Street is doing well, almost no one among the elites cares what happens to you.

The post-World War II social contract that brought about the largest and most prosperous middle class in world history began dying with Jimmy Carter, was kicked to shreds by Ronald Reagan, and buried by the presidents of both parties that came after Reagan.

America's elites feel they owe you nothing, and that your only value and worth in this world is to consume their products and services in order to make them even wealthier than they are. You're not a citizen to them, you're a consumer. They're not in this world with you, they're in this world against you.

So long as you are fighting among yourselves, and not uniting to fight them, you're getting what you deserve.

Just my two cents. Your mileage may vary.
For the most part, this sounds pretty accurate. I would say there are exceptions as all Republicans or Democrats can’t be stereotyped. Many are puppets of the corporate billionaires, though and fall in line with their elitist plan to attain global corporate control and dominance. I think Biden is the main puppet in the works now. They have to get rid of Trump and they’ve been agitating hate against him from every angle these last four years because he is in the way. Trump may be a lot of things, but he’s NOT a globalist and he’s been a huge obstacle to their agenda. He and especially this independent United States of America must be brought down and made to fall into line.

I do not believe you can say a party does not care. People make up that party and those people either care or not.

I am not for a two party system because it creates so much rancor and division, and I think this system is on its way out.

Ok leadership of the party doesn't care.

Imo, Biden and Harris do care.

I don't believe I specified a party, in my opinion both parties are after power and wealth. Their policies are designed to give a symbolism of differences but they never enact their policies.

What I would like are some new amendments to the constitution enforcing terms limits on congressmen and policy requirements for campaigning.

I thought we were looking at individuals, not parties. It makes no sense to me that Biden would be after wealth...
Why would he need wealth when he is a multi-millionaire?

As for power, the character of Biden is not of a man seeking power, that is obvious to me. He looks harried and worn out every time I see him on TV. Do you think being the president of the United States is an easy job? What personal benefits do you think he would be getting, other than the satisfaction of knowing he is helping the people in this country?

I have been on the earth for 7 decades......it has for all of that time been a matter of choosing the lesser of the two evils. People tend to be self-serving and vote for what they think will best serve their own ideals and wants, not for the greater good. We have exactly what we vote for and therefore deserve. Life is a *****.

It's almost as though political affiliation is as associated with indoctrination as religious belief. Go figure.
