The disease is the voters.

The voters don't pick the candidates, fund their campaigns, back specific legislation through lobby pressure, set the election laws or handle the corrupt machines by which they are carried out... voters are the least of the problem. Most of the voters honestly don't give a shite, anymore. They can see it's a giant lie. Look at the voters totals versus population. It tells a story.

Ahhhh, college ball. Hasn’t changed a bit.

In the future, like the NFL, it's going to take a lot of gambling to keep it anywhere near the viewership it has now.

You just don't like the way votes are counted.

Fraudulently? No and you shouldn't either.

It's kind of like how in so many places, the law has become very arbitrary thanks to progressive "justice" by purchased DAs. As a result, law is increasingly arbitrary by the populace as well... and it shows.

Getting embarrassed? Losing ground as a superpower daily? Getting our military might exposed for the entire world to see? Showing how beholden our foreign policy is to a tiny, insignificant middle eastern country? Showing that he is completely full of shite and a neo-con just like the rest of the GOP?

He's not going to win this. He'll invent some bullshite 'intelligence' that whatever he is defining the mission as is accomplished and then we will back off. Because you can talk all the shite you want to, if he isn't willing to commit ground troops, he's gone as far as he can go short of killing a bunch of civilians. Iran can outlast him. And he isn't going to commit ground troops. Even his neo-con masters know that would be long term suicide.

The wealthy elite have wanted to manage the human population like cattle for a very long time.

This bullshite Musk talks about "UBI" creating some better world... how is "UBI" any different than welfare? I can promise you, those on welfare are not living anything anyone would confuse for an idyllic existence.

By every metric other than what you see on social media. Free education, over abundance of food and other resources provided by the public and private sectors. Access to jobs if you can just show up and work.

What can’t be controlled is an unrealistic expectation to having nicer homes, cars and other stuff you can’t afford based on what society tells you you need to be “happy.”

---

"Free" education that is increasingly bad and even dangerous, depending on where you live. Over abundance of food, yes. Although much of that food is nutritionally bankrupt or even toxic. Many of the jobs you support cannot fund a living without some form of assistance and the cost of living only increases with every year. Housing costs across the board have skyrocketed. Secondary education costs are ludicrous. Transportation costs are ridiculously inflated and most parts of the country have no mass transit available. You can scream "go weld or flip burgers" all you like and call these younger people spoiled or whatever, but socialism would have zero appeal if things were working as they did half a century ago.

This isn't some Chinese or Russian plot. This is what happens when wealth concentrates at the top and the bottom continues to expand. Trump's rise was one path of reaction, a healthier one. Trump turning neo-con is causing many to - foolishly, yes - turn to the promises of socialism. But it didn't happen in a vacuum. See the national debt for exhibit A.

It hasn't and it never will. But what we have right now - an economy driven by war and debt - is failing and will continue to fail. No alternatives are politically allowed because portfolios have been built on these things. But the more that have no key to "the American dream", the more will accept even historically bad alternatives. And screaming "you just haven't worked hard enough" is as short sighted as it is wrong.

Trump had a real chance to combat it. Instead, he let his strings get yanked and allowed the satanic globalists to push him into a war. He sneered at housing, inflation and unemployment issues. Now, the commies are playing this in the same populist style that got Trump elected and the same independents are listening. If he truly wants to fight this, turn his eyes to this country, get the frick out of the middle east and get back on that bully pulpit to expose the enemies in THIS country: big pharma, corporate monopoly, money gaming elections, manipulation of housing costs, debt and the massive wealth machine built on it, identity politics industry, the monopoly that owns our media, the intelligence agencies... these are issues he can regain traction on. But he's too busy chasing bullshite and waging war and that is actually pushing younger people even to the most foolish ideologies.

That spin defies gravity.

ould be nice if the Alabama GOP could have come up with a better candidate.

They're all corporate bought and do what the corps tell them. Meemaw was a drone. Tuberville will be a more charming drone. Same federal money will get funneled to the same interests.
