GalacticAcid posted:William Spriggs has an interesting essay in The American Prospect, Why The White Worker Theme is Harmful. every time to try to bring up income inequality, broke brained IDPOL Liberals shrug it off as racism. if you go back and read the beginning of this thread, it's basically what everyone was focusing on and has bonus things like me thinking Booker might be the next nominee and a hilarious inept and shook CC.

Karl Barks posted:they're moving the power to ban marijauna sales from a community from the voters to the adlermans (think city council), they've upped the tax from 12% to 28%, and they're trying to classify the different kinds of weed (edibles, oils, plant) as different drugs They've been wanting to up the tax forever, but the rest of that stuff is new to me (if not surprising) gently caress one-party bureaucracy GalacticAcid posted:i know. sadly i've been reading this thread since the beginning.

Karl Barks posted:there is something so lame about "the resistance" like some hunger games hollywood bullshit Part of it is that they spend as much time resisting leftist policy ideas that would help people as they do resisting Trump (the person himself) (not his policies) and part of it is that they are obsessed with hunger games hollywood bullshit

btw, Plutocracy Forever?, the Winter 2015 issue of the American Prospect, has the best collection of writing on how to challenge inequality in america from a policy and political standpoint that i've seen. it's a liberal and not a radical publication so it doesn't propose full communism, alas, but it is very good and i wish more dems had read it. the prospect used to have a lot of influence in democratic policy-making circles, but i guess its star has fallen with Robert Reich's.
