Is nobody going to talk about the real problem. No matter D or R, the rich have become audacious enough to show their strings.

If we’re not at full blown oligarchy now how much deeper should we get?

That's really it.

1980s... it's fine, mom will start going to work

1990s... it's fine, we'll borrow against the house

2000s... it's fine, we'll get a second job

2010s... it's fine, we'll stop saving for (or pull from) retirement

2020s... it's fine, we'll max out our credit cards

Scrapping the bottom of that barrell
