j reacts to krugman's critique of sanders (he's right, but nobody should care)

krugman is right, but who cares?

what's the differences in health care plans? in foreign policy? on climate change?

if you break the banks up, they get captured. regulation doesn't work. we tried this. it failed.

so, personally? you give me a referendum on a bank, i stay home. it's boring. and it has no effect on my life. i do not think this is what is driving the popularity of his campaign. and i think he needs to fight the perception that it is.

let's get less teddy roosevelt, and more franklin roosevelt.

the banks are important because that is where he gets the money to do the things he wants to do.

that is all.

the way to fix the financial system is to educate people about where they're putting their money. it doesn't matter if it's big or small, or private or public or anything else - so long as people remain clueless, they will be taken advantage of. you can't protect the ignorant. what we need is financial literacy.

shit hillary said vol 24

"I was very flattered when Henry Kissinger said I ran the State Department better — better than anybody had run it in a long time. So I have an idea of what it’s going to take to make our government work more efficiently."

if you had a modern constitution, the cop wouldn't just be facing dismissal but plausibly jail time. and, he's going right to the raffle fundraiser at the child abuse unit, too, right?

just nuke them. fuck it.

listen to the sneer on this one. egads...

but, it's reflective. hillary represents the latte-drinking, upper-middle class. this anchor is an excellent proxy.

i'm always perplexed by the mindset that wants to keep kids sheltered and ignorant. it seems to me like they really want to, and maybe ought to, be playing with dolls.

the liberal legal academic system just spent the last thirty years putting in place an academic programme that teaches students that an entrenched, universal racial hierarchy exists - and that there is nothing that can be done to abolish it. we must adjust to it. and, then you wonder why the kids are fucked up? hey, guess what: maybe it has to do with what you've taught them. oops...

the reason they know that the system is racist, through and through, is because the system taught them it. did you expect them to shrug it off, or what?
