Both major political parties in the U.S. are revanchist at this point. The GOP wants to return to the 1950s. Dems want to return to Camelot & 1962. Neither party has any idea of how to face the challenges of 2021 & beyond. Neither party knows what to do about the billionaires. 1/

Neither party wants to stop the Pharma genocide. Neither party has the stones to take on Big Tech, Big Chem, nor Big Wireless. Neither party cares about the health & well being of the people. Neither party has any idea of how to get incomes growing again for the bottom 90%. 2/

Policy ideas in the U.S. right now are tired retreads of things people were talking about two generations ago. The complete lack of imagination, the total lack of honesty are the hallmarks of modern political discourse. Legislatures are packed with shameless bougie strivers... 3/

who are unable to read scientific studies & who have never had an original thought in their lives. Parties are cartels, policy debate only happens in movies, & principles live solely in history books. Everything is transactional, unifying higher ideals are for TV commercials. 4/

I do not know what we do about this. But I know that this is where we must start. Our political system is broken, our economic system is broken, & our health system is a grotesque zombie owned by Pharma. I do not want to return to an earlier set point. I want to begin anew. 5/5
