[Peace-discuss] Those evil Russians

[David Johnson]

Very well said Karen.

 

I can only add to your list - The Russians aren't preventing the American
people from having ; universal PUBLIC healthcare, free post high school
education, $ 15 minimum wage, clean renewable energy, public control of our
water systems and utilities as well as secure retirement pensions. The ones
preventing all of the above are the Democrats and the Republicans as you so
accurately said.

The Russians didn't gut, attack and destroy unions in the U.S. The Russians
aren't responsible for NAFTA, TPP, GATT, outsourcing, corporate welfare,
etc. The Russians didn't deregulate the financial industry, allowing Wall
Street to destroy our economy and create unprecedented wealth/income
inequality. The Russians aren't killing young black kids in the streets. The
Russians didn't militarize the police. The Russians didn't create the War on
Drugs. The Russians didn't create the School-to-Prison pipeline. The
Russians aren't responsible for slavery, Jim Crow, redlining, or the Prison
Industrial Complex. The Russians didn't invade Iraq and Afghanistan,
spending $3.6 trillion. The Russians didn't poison kids in Flint or East
Chicago. The Russians didn't divest in our nation's infrastructure.

The Russians didn't nominate Hillary Clinton, the second most loathed
politician in modern history. The Russians didn't subsidize the U.S. fossil
fuel industry, allowing the most destructive industries on the planet to
kill the living world with no consequences. The Russians didn't destroy the
public school system in the U.S., allowing charter schools to privatize
public goods. The Russians didn't create our homeless population or shut
down our mental health facilities. The Russians didn't enact the Patriot
Act, stripping our civil liberties and creating institutions like ICE. The
Russians didn't create our immigration crisis, nor are they responsible for
putting kids in cages throughout the U.S.

The Russians didn't clear cut old growth forests in the Pacific Northwest,
nor did they dam our rivers and kill the salmon. The Russians didn't strip
American women of their reproductive rights, or allow the NRA to control our
legislative bodies. The Russians didn't allow media corporations to
consolidate into five companies that control everything we see, read, or
hear. The Russians didn't overthrow democratically elected governments
throughout the Western Hemisphere. The Russians didn't allow the
pharmaceutical industry to create a nation of addicts. And the Russians
aren't allowing U.S. veterans to die by the thousands waiting for treatment.

You must be thinking of the Democrats and Republicans....
