Blame your current administration and the republican cohort for the majority of America's current socio-economic issues. Blame the multinational corporations and banks who don't pay accurate taxes and continue to (successfully) lobby for greater control of industries and patents. Blame Trump for media favoritism and vilification of opposing views under false pretenses.

Do yourself a favour and learn about the events that led to the rise of Hitler and the Nazi party, the holocaust, World War 2, and the global economic destabilisation that followed for decades afterwards. If you have half a brain, you may recognize some parallels.
