Very happy to see Walton speaking bluntly and directly about who her opponents actually are and who they represent. Don’t fall into arguing about their narrative, just keep pushing your own. Go India Walton!

Hi webwalk:
I think I’m giving in a horror movie as those who lose elections refuse to accept the results!!! Why would the losers ever think that grousing losers are competent? --This appears to be another dumb and dishonest Dem who apparently sees Trump’s scenarios as a way to win??? : 0

Bloomberg has been threatening that he is going to jump in to help defeat India Walton, why, because he hates socialists. Which means Hillary can’t be far behind. Just ask Bernie and Turner.
These fascists are terrified of the possibility of socialism succeeding demonstrating that their capitalism is nothing more than a big lie and scam being played on the American people.
The USPS prohibits chain letters for good reason and the very same reason that we’ve seen how trickle down economics only works to further enrich only those at the top, while the middle class disappears and the poor suffer. In the same way corporate run fascist capitalism is nothing but a chain letter that needs to become outlawed.

Illegal processes are a natural concomitant to great inequality in wealth. When people cannot have a living honestly, they break at their various individual thresholds and take bribes.
Some bribes are called wages, some are called campaign contributions, some are de facto, and involve unrestricted access to one or another market–to “turf.”
But you know, when management decides that an enterprise will go under, when it refuses to invest further for fear of sending good money after bad, when individuals up and down the hierarchy siphon off dollars to retain nickels for personal gain, the system falls.
The US has slid a long way since Bush and Reagan decided to keep draining money away while cutting upkeep. And every president and every congress has carried this process further since 1980, and the process has gained speed.
We will have to quit indulging these people’s high fantasies that huge money and business and resources belong to them.

Just wait, i’m sure the corporate libertarians are working up a campaign to legalize chain letters and pyramid scams in general, because, freedom!
I mean, payday loan sharks were illegal when i was a boy. They’re everywhere now, because, freedom! Lotto was illegal when i was a boy, organized crime ran “the numbers” game, now pretty much every state has a lotto and there are de facto national lottos in mega-millions and power-ball, because, freedom!

you see how Democratic unity works–can you say hypocrites–the only unity they care about is the one where they gather together for their corporate dollars to screw over the citizens for the 5th decade in a row-and they will fight progressives with all the fury of the righteous and then cozy up to the fascists in the Republican party like they are all good buddies and produce NOTHING for the American people----the Republicans? they’ve been screwing over the citizens for ever—wonder why 1/2 the country doesn’t bother to vote?? because they have come to realize that no matter which party they vote for they get the same old corporate shit sandwich–why they said if we elected them they would be the FDR 2.0–we delivered --and they failed to deliver yet again–even cheeped out on the relief bill–promised $2000 delivered $1400-just like they were paid to do it or something

16 years of Byron Brown and Buffalo is in the bottom 10 for all US cities for Poverty, Discrimination, and Crime – what a record. Only the lives of the rich developers have improved.
Buffalo and the surrounding suburbs are rigged for the wealthy developers as can be seen by Buffalo’s 1% Syndicate going to all the illegal extremes to keep their Sugar Daddy in office.
Now Buffalo finally has in India Walton a candidate is truly is one of the 99% and as the only hope of a city in free fall I hope she gets elected.

It will be interesting to see how a little social democracy works out for the 99%.

“…demonstrating that their capitalism is nothing more than a big lie and scam being played on the American people.”
Agreed,except substitute Worlds for American. Technically speaking"capitalism" as defined by the dictionary doesn’t exist,only a sociopathic mutant i call Crapitalism or Profitism does.
