They'd only say that if the vegetable farmers were offering the politicians more money.

It's the economic system of distribution that's the issue. That's why 10% of our gas is corn. Why the USDA food pyramid had 11 servings of grain. Business and government will continue to merge until we replace the capitalist government with a socialist one. Then at least we'd have a chance of government doing what voters want. As long as the government and the working class are different groups of people, people will always be looking for ineffectual patches for a broken system.

That's all you get when you've got a system where the accumulation of political power through the accumulation of capital is aided and abetted. Agriculture is a politically powerful lobby so they get taxpayer dollars every year and lax supervision through regulatory capture.

This is offensive. Trump is the opposite of what that symbol represents.

Capitalist governments doing capitalism. It's ridiculous to think that climate change was going to be fixed by consolidating the power of the people who caused it.

Difficult does not mean not necessary.

Besides, the US military lost in Afghanistan and Vietnam, they have no hope of winning a domestic counterinsurgency of sufficient scale.

They're already in charge. We've got two capitalist parties. Republicans back fascists domestically. Democrats back fascists internationally. The people who own the country won't allow us to vote away their power, we need to start talking about effective activism. Every year we wait causes massive suffering across the world.
