Comments by "Animal Farm" (@animalfarm7467) on "Caller: I Used To Be A Republican, But Inequality Changed My Mind." video.
It is interesting to see the circumstances and the personality that is transforming from a Reagan/Thatcher mentality to a more progressive perspective. I hate using the words liberal and progressive; they are usually deceptive, ambiguous, and especially subjective. With respect to inequality, I am wondering why the caller is leaning towards the Democrats. Both major parties are out to screw Main Street in favor of Wall Street but at least the Republicans are a little more honest about the interests for which they are working. The Democrats should be called the DECEPTOCRATS. They feign empathy for Main Street while working against their interests. NAFTA is an excellent example of how deceptive the Democrats can be. We all know that both parties are working for the establishment but the Republicans are more transparent in their intent. The caller appears to understand how, what I call long term principal rotation, occurs in this chimera of politics that confronts the American people. As Thomas states in the 1930s the Republican Party was working for Main Street and the Democrats were plotting a New Deal coup. Earlier, the Democrats were behind the KKK and the Republicans were against slavery. With no foundation in principal of either party, surely you must understand that both parties stand for nothing. There only function is to deceptively squabble over policies that involve minority interests to ensure they remain in the public consciousness and to work for the interests of their puppet masters. Maybe the caller should rethink the political direction in which he is traveling. There are more options than just the Republicrats.
