    The .1% are not elected officials but are instead controlling them. Billionaires and capitalism are the root of the problem.

      Citizens United, and other initiatives that allow obscene and often obscure funding into politics, need to be stopped.

      Nah it’s my neighbors fault who are just rich enough to survive off moldy bread and expired meats from the food bank but too poor to do anything aside from watch TV for hours on end after their 12 hour shift or surviving (stealing!) $800 a month to survive from my taxes.

      There’s no one else to blame, don’t look behind the curtain, no inquires, back to your scheduled programming.

      It’s a culture war, not a class war.
