Change Spares No Dimes



Digby notes that in order for Unity to Unify the country the bad guys have got to stop being the bad guys. There's no sign that's happening.

Digby:

...Democrats may very well win the election. And they may have a large working majority. Hopefully they will get some good things done for the country. But if they do not run on and then act on these constitutional abuses, they will be used again the next time a Republican is in office (if not sooner) and we will have to fight this battle all over again, having lost a tremendous amount of territory in the meantime. What we will have lost in terms of morality and decency is uncountable...


Lambert understands the real meaning of Unity:

...Yes, I’m sure that a new-found sense of unity, and especially a total avoidance of accountability, will be very welcome to the wealthy who stripped the country of its assets, and are now planning to retire to their mercenary-guarded gated communities...

“Confidence” is a dogwhistle to the investor class, right?


Austerity is coming to a neighborhood near you unless, of course, you run a hedge fund or CEO a major corporation with War on Terra contracts.
