Had Lunch With A Breh Who Works For Lawyers of a Lobby Group....America is cooked

Yeah it's gonna get worse, and the ones most impacted are going to be the ones with medical issues. After the United healthcare CEO got shot and the healthcare industry was exposed, u woulda thought people would start cancelling their health insurance and refusing to pay premiums until reform was done. Instead everybody posted Luigi super mario memes and moved on. Not a damn thing was done

my health insurance is 600 a month, and my company pays 450 of that. if we had "free" healthcare, the government is just gonna take that money instead

yeah our system sucks, but i don't see people revolting over it

That's your personal situation, and not for nothing but u probably well off and in decent health so it wouldn't impact u as much

But still....


Look at your comment. U don't care about any of these people dying due to being denied coverage by their health care provider, as long you're ok that's somebody else problem

By the time u will be impacted don't be upset when people better off don't care about your suffering

Simpler fix: create an amendment that ends corporate lobbying.

I been sayin' we need our own institutions. When are we going to come together and do that?

The country is self destructing from within. Our politicians have been the devils of the world for the last 70 years. Its time for the evil reign to end. Cacs too stupid to realize it

Me and some brehs from college had lunch to catch up while he was in town.

Put it this way, a shyt ton of bills will be sponsored over the next 2 years specifically around gutting our healthcare system to save money

Both parties will try and cut in literally every area BUT military spending to address the 37 TRILLION dollar debt this country is in.

He confirmed that protests don't work and, if anything, piss off reps into voting against what people protest. They also get pissed off when you blow up their phones and email. So the Gaza protests were never going to change anything, especially because the Israel lobby basically paid hundreds of millions for bills that favor Israel.

Essentially, if you aren't a lobby group or know lobbies, you are fukked. The bills that get enough steam in the house will not be killed no matter what; they will only get enough amendments that satisfy opposing lobbies. Nothing in any of this exchange has consideration for constituents. So for example, when, #StopAsianHate was signed by Biden, it was because the bill was sponsored by rich Asian lobby groups that made sure it got enough steam that it wouldn't die in the House or Senate. The optics looked good for the Dems who would rely on minority group votes during the mid terms for a "blue wave" as a bonus. But really, it was the money that made it move so quickly. We didn't even get into the Republicans because all he had to say was "NRA" and we got the message.

I got home about 20 mins ago and have just been staring at my TV with nothing but disbelief. This system is so fukking corrupt and broken; I still can't believe how naive I am and many people are

It’s really fascinating to see. A multitude of idiots in here. It almost gets me mad.

“Duh who didn’t know this”

Well you’re okay with your situation fakkit? since you’ve know about this so long.

Funny how people attack the person giving the message and ringing alarm bells.

Professor Richard Wolf has always talked about this and is a huge advocate for workplace democracy.

It worked in Yugoslavia, but got destroyed in ethnic wars:

The economy was characterized by a combination of market mechanisms and state planning, with a focus on worker self-management and decentralized decision-making.

The Yugoslav economy achieved significant growth and modernization during its early existence with a particularly strong emphasis on education, health care, and social welfare. Later political and economic instability in the region during the 1980s, led to the eventual collapse and dissolution of Yugoslavia by 1992.

Economy of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia - Wikipedia

It was a dictatorship at national level, with democracies at work levels.

It would be perfect if we could have both...

There wasn't a "George Floyd" bill because, despite the protest and outrage, we don't have a single, powerful black lobby to bribe these corrupt politicians. It failed because there was no money momentum for the proposed bill.

The NAACP is a breadcrumb organization that was meant to placate us due to how dangerous UNIA was.

The only way black people progress, meaningfully isn't through voting. It's through concentrated lobbying. It's now abundantly clear to me after today.

Black people as a whole don't understand this!

We don't understand this society, we don't understand this country, and we don't understand this WORLD!

Soon as we understand there's nothing NICE or FAIR about this world, we'll then be ready to really compete.

There's nothing fair about lions catching a zebra while it's giving birth, and eating the vulnerable mother and baby. When we understand this world is about eat or be eaten.

In conclusion...we had better get our money up by any means necessary.

Thank you to all the people who chose to participate in democracy by voting on election day, you are all very smart people!

Is this possible to have or would the powers that be try to infiltrate it/shut it down
