I see why people have a problem with this. I get it.
But we need to realize that all of our "elected officials" do this kind of pandering quid pro quo shit.
The struggle isn't Democrat vs Republican. It never was.
It's rich versus poor, and if you're not sure where you land, welcome to the poors. Additionally, "poor" in this context isn't even what most people would consider to be "poor" .... If you can't sit on your ass and make 6 figures per day, you're probably closer to poverty than you are to the people who run the country.
What everyone needs to acknowledge is that it's us (poors) vs them. And we have the numbers. They turn us on eachother in the name of the Lord, or democracy, or freedom, or whatever the fuck... But not money. Let's never talk about the money. As long as they can keep us fighting amongst ourselves, then they will continue to win. Every day that goes by that we continue to allow these chucklefucks to stay in power and stroke eachothers dicks with the money from the public purse, is quite literally another day of labor they've stolen from us.
We've been taken for all that we're worth. As long as we can still bleed out some money that they can take, they're going to keep squeezing.
The argument isn't Republican vs Democrat or liberal vs conservative. It's us vs the 1%.
The faster everyone accepts that, the faster we can fix this shit.
