    I can say that by looking at this. That real time clock is a testament to the hard work of both democrats and republicans to destroy the economy and crash the USD.


    Nonsense. Gross profit has shifted to the top? Think for yourself and put the hard left talking points down. We use fractional reserve banking- there is no fixed pie. If you feel like you are not getting your 'share' of profit, do or create something valuable and manage it correctly- you will get rich if you work hard.




    First I do not vote against my interests and that is a lazy accusation.

    Second, I can only assume that you would think me voting (D) would be in my interests. It most certainly would not. Democrats are against freedom and liberty. They want cradle to grave government assistance even know they know they can't pay for it. The only people who actually have an interest to protect in voting (D) are those dependent on government and various victim groups looking for government protection and sanction.
    Point one; we agree in part, but the Dems did not create the 2008 crash; the Republican laissze-faire did.

    Point two: "fractional reserve banking" has nothing to do with money going to the top: it's about loans for capital investment. The earning power of the 1% shifted in their favor beginning in the late '70s while everybody else's earning power was legislatively and by anti-unionism taken away and suppressed.

    Third point: if you live and vote right-wing you ARE voting against your own interest in favor of political views which are based on your psychological framing: "the strict father who knows what's best".

    If I don't see or hear their platforms so that as a nonpartisan voter I can make up my own mind, then your candidates and their platforms are a waste of time; the right stands a chance of winning executive offices.

    "Republican laissze-faire" is an oxymoron. I mean, really, how can Republican government be "abstention by governments from interfering in the workings of the free market." https://www.lexico.com/en/definition/laissez-faire

    Also, it's spelled laissez-faire

    For one two and three, you don't know what you are talking about.

    1. Ultimately the crash was bipartisan. Several things happened over decades that led to it.
    2. You miss the point. There is no "money going to the top" in the sense that you appear to claim. There is no fixed pie of money. Because we use fractional reserve banking.
    3. Stupid and lazy statement.
