So that people don’t get the wrong idea, I don’t reblog Robert Reich because I agree with his solutions, he is just an example of the “mainstream” or “establishment” Democrats who want to still appear like they stand for the working class so they talk about inequality and injustice, but like all establishment Democrats, he won’t rock the boat and say what actually needs to be said.

Just one example: Reich mentions that NOBODY has gone to jail from the Wall St elite who ruined the financial system, so why doesn’t he call out the President or Attorney General Eric Holder?

Reich is right about one thing in this upcoming election, it’s not about the size of government, it’s about what government’s for, and in this next election, we’ll have two parties who have failed to prosecute the financial criminals that wrecked the economy of the U.S. and the world, and got away with it.

Americans have never much liked government. After all, the nation was conceived in a revolution against government.

But the surge of cynicism now engulfing America isn’t about government’s…
