Oh they know, but 98% of them consider taxing the rich to be self-persecution. The current crop of establishment dems need to be recalled or primaried, they’re too corrupted to turn a new page.
Yup! The issue is the dems are supported by, you guessed it, the rich. Aside from a few outliers who put their beliefs and morals ahead of their wallets or power, most of the dems would never turn their back on their oligarchic stakeholders.
I mean, fuck, they make $174,000 a year and work like 130 days a year. Assuming 8 hour work days, that’s ~$167/hour, before any sort of lobbying or bribes gifts. They can just sit there and do fuck all and be happy as a cow, so that’s what they do. For some reason, we (the people) keep voting for them, usually just out of fear of the other guys getting the spot.
There you go, dems. You know what they want.
God I wish we had elected Bernie.
