“It ought to come as no nice shock {that a} Democratic Occasion which has deserted working class individuals would discover that the working class has deserted them. First, it was the white working class, and now it’s Latino and Black employees as properly. Whereas the Democratic management defends the established order, the American persons are indignant and wish change. And so they’re proper.
As we speak, whereas the very wealthy are doing phenomenally properly, 60% of People reside paycheck to paycheck and we have now extra revenue and wealth inequality than ever earlier than. Unbelievably, actual, inflation-accounted-for weekly wages for the typical American employee are literally decrease now than they had been 50 years in the past.

Within the coming weeks and months these of us involved about grassroots democracy and financial justice must have some very severe political discussions.
Keep tuned.”
