Dutchess County Progressive Action Alliance
I continue to be impressed by this group. Of course, many of them were Bernie supporters, trying to make there way in Trump's dysfunctional America. The surprising thing is that their answer is not just to elect more Democrats to Congress. They are demanding real progressives, not corporate stooges and multimillionaire politicians.
Nancy Pelosi destroyed the hopes of millions of Americans. So did the likes of Bill Clinton and Obama. Always eager to give up worker rights without a fight, they betrayed the fine rhetoric that got them into office. They were intelligent, well spoken and completely without moral character. Trump sits in a White House already despoiled by charlatans and corporate hacks. Trump is just more honest in his lack of any legitimacy. Serving the people has long been unfashionable, an anachronism in the age of empire and endless war.
Can universal healthcare be won in a corporate controlled state? Or must the entire system be rethought?
