    But tell me how both parties are the same. The Right is literally punishing people for not wanting the product of a private company!

      No one I know has cable anymore, so this means very little.

      Why aren’t any Democrats talking about how GDP per capita is 4x higher than 50 years ago, and we’ve doubled the number of income earners per household, yet people are poorer. Why aren’t we 8x richer?

      The only “Democrat” talking about this is Bernie, and he’s not actually a Democrat.

        Why aren’t any Democrats talking about how GDP per capita is 4x higher than a year ago

        Last year was 62k and this year is 64k.

        On what planet is that 4 times higher?
