Not extreme left but it's socialist and isn't consistent with American ideals. You can bitch about that shit if you want but we're in the decay phase after a gluttonous society and you think the answer is communism? You do, you think everyone and everything should be "fair" but life and this country don't work like that.

Could be if we tried. The democrats have been neo-lib appeasement artists because they are a part of the ruling class. This system cannot hold. Something will change. We just have to wait and see which way it breaks. Either way, I'm already doing the work to see a world I want. I don't care about the noise. Arguments like "Life ain't fair" are a poor substitute for putting yourself out there. I used to think much the same way. But, I had to do something about how bad it is getting.
