Now is the time for the everyday American to raise a stink or else the war mongers at the first sign of defense cuts will make noise to get the grease and the average working person who sat by and did nothing in America will get the axe.

If we want a Green New Deal superimposed on this troika of industries, i.e., auto, oil, and government, than the GND must be funded from the economic surplus this troika generates for itself, that is capitalized into profits for and by the owners of this troika. Profit is the privatization of the economic surplus naturally being produced by labor and capital regardless of their proportions in production is true for all industries of all types. Replacing the machinery that runs on oil with machinery that runs on sun power does not stop the process of production, to the contrary, new cars that run on alternative energy are produced and this eliminates the need for oil and the need for an oil oligarchy. I say this because the New Deal was funded on taxing the rich higher rates, thus a transfer of wealth, from the rich to the poor, creating a Welfare State, we all want to avoid in the future. The New Deal did not involve a new source of energy and therefore did not have to do away with a generic social class over which every industry has its own oligarchy, thus, many oligarchies as a generic class become ' a thing of the past' if all industries each generate their own economic surplus that can fund their own conversion. If a product can not be adapted to a new use even if its conversion has happened the industry will disappear. Government's role would be to identify what industries will perish in the new society and which ones will succeed and invest into its population coping with those changes. The only role government should have in society is defense, health, education, disaster recovery and conservation/renewal of the environment. With oligarchy a thing of the past the conflicts are social not both economic and social with oligarchs in place. New energy will call up new products and government subsidizing the rich or the poor, is a return to the past not a leap into the future.

What? There is no love and revolution in this social group the subjects of the investigation removed the investigators. A ‘female subordinate” not a good start for a new party. Pathetic.

If you analyze the details of the picture of the NYC Hostel Resident, you will find it is not the same person who got away with the crime. In short, the Cops know the assassin is gone. This case will open up a can of rotten worms for the police if they cannot find the assassin. Appealing to the Public to turn in the guy will not work since the Public are victimized by this dead man who belongs to the health industry. Before the ink went cold on the CEOs death certificate United Health appointed a new CEO and continued with their meeting.

The weapons used by corporate America to crush a movement include: Lock outs, Speed ups, Low wages and high prices, Starvation, Use their wealth to wait out a strike or movement. Best to immediately freeze their assets so that cannot wait out a strike or protest. Their weapons are economic, the State's weapons are social, economic and political/ideological. The producing social classes have to be on one side and the consuming corporations with the state on the other side puts the political and economic order in correct order. The order is deceptively reversed in reality to accomodate capital. The social classes that produce are consumers and the social classes that consume are the producers obscures the real economic relation. It will require education to get people to see themselves as the real producers after decades of indoctrination by the belief they are consumers.

Just a note to you Bernie supporters. Your campaign is a working class movement. Bernie has created this movement. A movement that could die out as quickly as he built it as soon as it steps outside of the party. In other words, when the mainstream democrats close the door on the counter-cultural movement, democracy comes to an end. In a sense some in those circles see Bernie doing all the leg work pooling the demographic together for them to slam the door shut behind them. What were two parties have merged to become one party with two wings. Within that environment there is no chance for the working class movement can survive. The rank and file of the party Bernie had brought into the process is now broad enough to be its own party. This movement can get as big as it likes but if it is under the rule of the democratic party its like living back at home under their roof their rules. In their house the working class can never come into its own as a viable opposition to what is now one party with two wings alternating power between them.

You'd have to protect him from your own right wing. The minute he signs legislation is the minute the defense establishment will move forward at an unprecedent pace to pressure his impeachment.

Bernie's speech in the Senate in 2010 of the loss of manufacturing jobs in the US is a dismal picture of the death of the industrial blue collar American working class. Their children misguided by neo-fascists on line, are lashing out with violent rage at the neoliberal order for destroying their future was an unforseen sociological consequence the democrats missed when they ran Hillary Clinton. That was the time to push legislation on the tech industry to root violent tendencies out of the internet to protect impressionable minds. The neglect in government is corruption serving itself as they say. A whole generation lost historical context and sense of belonging fell prey to the tech industry in search of belonging and context Trump was only too happy to provide a scapegoat. Corresponding to all that going on wages were sinking, as Bernie said and the trend continues. The blue collar working class is decimated, gone, and now the average working class jobs we see people doing around us everyday pay is minimum wage. Employers have a perfect economic situation to exploit, as their companies grow larger and larger from higher rates of productivity of workers inside the offices, warehouses, shops, distribution centers, they own they can hire more labor for the lowest amount in payment in wages to move more product. The worker's share of this product is nothing. Textile industry was the first to export production from the US and with the rise of industrial production in China, a huge chunk of American general production went offshore to China. The democrats failed to take certain steps to protect the working class from the sociological dimensions of losing a job, a career, a family, a middle class lifestyle. It would be an asset if more sociologically minded people ran for office, sociologists themselves, they have certain insights that regular politicians do not, they learn from experience what not to do. Insight in Bernie makes him so special, he has a sociological mind the general consciousness of the public does not. The Public does nt have much imagination we can call a universal awareness of its own common calling, that is why we have Popes, presidents, kings, monarchs, princes, and oligarchs, injecting ideas into our heads the class struggle and the concept of working-class emancipation as a self-emancipation is not real!

Inflation will be the one of the many failings besetting the Biden administration on the minds of voters facing his re-election. Look at the things happening as a backdrop to his administration. The public disapproves of this president; he has a lower popularity rating than Donald Trump. Losing the White House will be a long term crisis for the democrats. Rather than tackling the crisis head on,--- they hope to prevent Trump from running again. They have no evidence against Trump. They have nothing to offer the working class and a virulent right wing that overturned Roe v Wade scored a victory are empowered along. Whether Biden should even run is an internal crisis for the democratic leadership and progressives are not challenging that leadership. If not him than who? He has gas prices hovering at $5 per gallon and a recession. Combined global and domestic recessions and he has stagflation afflicting the US economy, and his proxy war in Ukraine, plus more outbreaks of violence. To do something about it would be to take a stand and choose the side of the working class and work to get the democrats to defect from the side of corporate capital. Raw social power is the only thing that will move democrats to the side of the working class. Biden does not have working class social power backing him up. The people are against him and form part of the reason the republicans win by exploiting the failings of the democratic party continually abandoning the working class. The working class is continually played in every election in more less the same manner that when the republicans lose the democrats invent a character to run against never forecasting the possibility they will lose to the character they invented to be the pretend opposition to them, is a crisis for them. The working class is alone but it is powerful enough to defeat corporate capital if that aim becomes its primary focus.

The American consumer, maybe even you as one consumer of Mickey D’s and all of your generation and the senior citizens buy food from an employer of children. Consumers outside of the US are not made aware as media there does not report on society here and media here does not report on societies outside of the US, how do people know they buy products produced by young slaves. You need a revolution in your country and your generation is doing nothing about shames all generations before you who did fight against this form of exploitation.

Humans have transformed the environement in such a way that it has changed our relationship to animals. With 1300 species of bats and 6 to 5 caronaviruses in all bats severe acute respiratory disease spreads through a sick planet where humans have changed the ecology in how we live with animals. We are exposed to the spill over from animals and our intimate living with animals of all varieties in cultures that either revere them religiously or adopt them as part of the society we live. The Nippa virus epidemic was caused by deforestation and the movement of bats closer to other animals. Changing ecology is crucial to how animal and human are related. Higher temperatures, human and planetary health is at the basis of this crisis and pandemic. Africa, Latin America and Asia are ticking time bombs. None of your candidates spoke to the issue of the ecology and planetary health as it realtes to diseases should tell you that all of them politicized this crisis and ignored the medical-ecological question of human habitation and health. The public is completely ignorant on the question. No question Bernie would be better than Trump because Bernie is not anti-science but that is the only reason he would be better than Trump. Trump would be better than Bernie because Trump is not anti-capitalist and will pull out all the resources to save capitalism which of necessity will call out the military who will call out the scientists.

On a serious note: People who chronicle the society in this medium have the advantage of a power of a medium that can end the exploitation of man by man. Our society can materially afford to end this scourge of humanity. Build a society where nobody is without means and subsistence. Take the reverse direction the Establishment does not want to go, consequently does not take us to develop into social human beings of intelligence.

I am never going to get an overview of the anatomy of the system under which we live from Cheech but he gets one point true to humans, education is the point of life for individual humans... but financial gain is the point of life for the society is incongruous with the personal point of life to individuals!

Voter apathy enabled the 45 year long process of privatization of New Deal programs of the government. The population of 332 million with the right to vote don’t use it. The far right ensures they get their people in positions of power the left does not but relies on a progressive wing of a right wing party that fails them with false leads and broken promises. The average who do use their vote about a third of the total enable this duopoly representing different sections of a large social class of owners to jockey power between them. A great contest for the owners who among them get to rule the country and a great social experiment conducted on the total population has been the social history of this country for the last 50 years and technically going back to the Kennedy assassination. A history of incomplete social revolutions and a series of deferred imperatives crushing the aspirations, hopes and dreams, specifically of blacks who fought the struggle for civil equality, opportunity and independence, prove how unequal markets of buyers and sellers truly has been since 1865. The Supreme Court Decision to strike Roe v Wade is a direct blow to the southern black section of the working class because it is not a blow to a southern rich section of white ruling classes not infringed by the decision. The SCOTUS has made abortion a class issue; black buyers because it hurts them the most are unequal to white buyers and the sellers have been pushed far away that only a rich person can use the service is a legal method of changing the economy to produce inequality in society. The method is evil to say the least. So 162 million people who do not vote can break this duopoly! Question becomes what does this Left do to rally the ones who do not vote? Get all of them to be a dollar or broke and committed to the cause donor as a monthly a member of a party standing ready to assume power in the name of their membership. The Workers Party from which the right kind of candidates are offered in opposition to the right wing for all elections is close to what America needs but not exactly. Since America is a multicultural place consisting of traumatized immigrants in the working population the language of a third party must be all inclusive. All In and Nobody Out makes the old new again.

Keep you eye on events happening in Brazil. America's right wing neo-Nazis anti-labor and anti-communists are attacking worker's strikes and Brazil's Socialist Party. Workers need to get super tight in their organization in their fight back and defend against covert and overt attacks to their movement from this right wing. They very violent people. They are always the people inciting civil war and opposition for the sake of blocking worker's progress.

It does not lead to an action to talk about the conflicts between political Elite social classes in Russia and the US without talking about how that conflict affects us at home, whether it means less time off the job for those who are working now or for those struggling day in and day out, will sink deeper into the abyss of poverty. It also means the money to fund this campaign comes out of the pockets of all employees, and that every dollar spent on defense is capital not invested in society. Spending money that is not your’s means the spender is not responsible for the spending but the owner of that money is responsible and that would be on all of us that our own society crumbles for lack of investment so that one elite power can dominate another other elite power in a war of competition for gas and oil.

Manhattan is where all the social action happens. Its a place for the young and young at heart. But life north of 14 St. is a place for the old. People forget that places like Chelsea, Park Ave, West Side, East Side, Harlem, Jackson Heights were individual towns within the city. Settled by early immigrants and divided along class lines of rich and poor these places became city neighborhoods when more of the grassland was taken up by building construction they became little towns reflecting their immigrant origins. More people, more apartments, more buildings they lost their early town feel and became city neighborhoods. The entire world is packed into an island today. The real action all happens above Wall Street and below Union Square. This is where all the social experimentation is made. Creative people, wide open, and on the edge. Take a historical tour of the Village you’d be surprised to know who were in those buildings, cafés. Rich history of individuals from every era. City life and suburban life are opposites. Narrow and slow, a bar and church, the lodge...a mall...meeting your every need. Society should close the gap between town and country. I would imagine a car protest would do that.

A battle scene that will live in infamy. This would have been supportable had the purpose of a protest/insurrection was about getting COVID relief and Med 4 All. Supportable by 2/3rds of the population now suffering 300, 000 deaths per day. How it would have been a miraculous turnaround for Trump virtually turning him into a super star if he set his sights on handling the COVID disaster and taking credit for the most incredible vaccine advance ment in world history, rectifying the health system into one national health system and using the Defense Production Act to get the population working again and cooperating with the science but his personality got the better of him. History will be less kind to him for playing a mediocre role and be forgotten after he gets nailed to the cross. How Biden gets a handle on this COVID nightmare will define if he gets another term. Within the first four months will decide his fate as a one or two term president. If the elections were not rigged now they better not be in the near future because Trump and Trumpism will still be around to claim they were right and the insurrection of the Nation's Capitol was a victory. In a way the insurrection is warranty that future elections will not be rigged for that would spell the end of the democratic party if elections to re-elect Biden were rigged and Biden failed to nail the virus and put the economy back into working order for the ones without a job, future, wealth. It would be a last gasp for that party that could put Trump back in the driver's seat. Unless he has something else up his sleeve that we don't know about as he is still commander-in chief his powers don't evaporate until Biden is Inaugurated.

If workers owned the product they would never allow their product to be damaged or ruined by a strike. If the workers owned a share of the market value of the product they would never stop production. By the same token if workers owned a share of the product (i.e., the factory, trucks, cement, sand, machines and tools, etc.,) they would never destroy that investment which is partially their source of income and employment. But as long as workers do not own a share of the product (i..e, factory, machines, etc.,) or a market share of the product it is the vast number of consumer-buyers who are made dependent, therefore, live precariously, on that industry for its necessaries and who suffer if that industry cannot work or function. I think workers should build a movement for more ownership of the means of production and half ownership of the market share of the products they produce and which corporations sell on the world market despite what the Supreme Court rules. Such a movement would be more powerful than the state’s repressive resources and make any decision of the SCOTUS ineffectual, because such a movement changes the relations of property of a particular social contract to a more general social contract that no longer engulfs employment and industries into a social conflict. Wages and salaries can be a thing of the past.
