    Agreed.

    No f’in way this happens, especially not in the same week when Kamala Harris goes on national TV to say she’s a capitalist.

    With that said, I still hope they try. It should be inconvenient at least to run a monopoly.

        I’d love to believe that, but Democrats have ruled as pro-corporate assholes for 40 years now. The last Dem we had with the balls to oppose corporate rule was LBJ.

        Look, I’m voting for Harris, and even as a leftist I’m half excited by it. But let’s not pretend a mainstream democratic party politician is anything other than a capitalist. She might have good policy ideas, ones that will genuinely help people, but she’s still a capitalist.

      The best our government can do is make mega corpos pay lawyers … So at least we got some extra jobs out of it 🤡

      Since they are creating extra jobs shouldn’t government reward them with state aid for it?!
