It's even worse. In order to coverup the failure/betrayal by Obama and the Democratic establishment, the party had to vilify half the country - anyone who didn't vote blue, no matter who - as ignorant, uneducated, resentful racists, conspiracy-nuts, and now insurrectionists and selfish anti-vaxers. As the coverup continues, it's clear to them that the only "solution" is Big Tech censorship to eliminate all social media "misinformation" that seems to be riling up the rabble. This is the way a society, not just an economy, falls apart.

Why can’t people see that we no longer have democracy. The Supreme Court killed democracy by voting 5 to 4 for Citizens United. They decided that “corporations are just like people”. That stupid decision has allowed a flood of corporate money to flow into Congress. No member of Congress has to go home and ask for money anymore. They just stay in DC and live off of their corporate sugar daddies. Voters no longer have a voice in government. Corporations have the only voice. It is grotesque that Democrats campaign to allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices. It was George Bush who gave that gift of prohibition to Big Pharma. Congress has sat on its hands for decades watching US citizens get ripped off by Big Pharma. That George Bush gift could have been changed any time, but they care more about corporate contributions than they care about citizens. If Citizens United is not reversed, we will never get our democracy back.
