After the November 5th election, It’s official! The rich have completely taken over our Federal Government. The rich have all the money and power in America and they want more at the expense of the working-class. The rich for decades controlled the Republican Party, now they have succeeded with their GOP proxy to control all components of our Federal Government. They control the House, the Senate, the White House and the US Supreme Court. And as a cherry on the top, they control a majority of statehouse across America. It’s no longer “we, the people”, it’s now “We, the rich” that control our government and democracy.
Remember the preamble to the US Constitution …. We, the people in order to form a more perfect union ….. establish Justice, ensure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity. A moral, righteous and fair platform to govern, to benefit the masses. But now we have the rich controlling every aspect of our lives. Billionaires and Wall Street executives, the fossil fuel industry and Hedge Fund executives are making all the decisions at the peril of the workers, consumers and our environment. Elon Musk’s $260 million dollar contribution to Trump/GOP sealed the deal. Now he is center to the effort to undermine/defund government and establish policies that embellish his wealth and other billionaires at the expense of you and me.
Billionaires didn’t invest in/buy the election as a charity contribution. They are seeking a “return on their investment” via deregulations and huge tax cuts and the dismantling of government and those programs that benefit/protect the working class. The Working Class must organize and resist and fight for the meager slice of the economic pie they help create. Resist until Democrats can take back government for the people. We must make American government run by “we, the people” for the people, not the rich for the rich!
