Ignorance, blind greed, and stubborn, ill-informed, outdated ideologies destroying the middle class.

America has become an empire where instead of a single leader having all the power, the dollar bill and therefor the Federal Reserve do. The only people that have the power to change the status quot are politicians... due to things like Citizen's United giving those that have the most money the most say in our political process. Our elected officials, instead of acting on the people's behalf, therefor make decisions and plans based almost solely on how it will eventually affect their own personal wealth. Basically, No money = no power in our current system.

Just look at the 2016 presidential race. Look at the donors and the amounts they've given to Hillary and Sanders' campaigns. Bernie's donors are all middle class workers and unions. Clinton's are all billion dollar banking and investment firms. Bernie is fighting for middle class people and unapologetically blames the redistribution of wealth to the richest people for the USA's downfall over the last 2 decades. In all sanity, if a person looks at who is paying for a candidates presidency they will get a pretty good idea of what ideologies they will embrace, what corporations they will favor, what CEO's will consequentially get cushy government jobs in the new administration, and who will ultimately be pulling the strings in the end. Bernie just introduced a bill stating that If a financial institution is too big to fail, it's also too big to exist... where as Obama bailed out the banks and gave their leaders cushy government jobs... I wonder why that would be? Bernie WILL NOT WIN this election merely because he isn't going to get the money from big donors.

It really isn't a giant mystery why money, the fed, and the special interests of large corporations are the only thing that our government seems to care about. Economies are based on the middle class. Cater to the rich only, and things start to crumble.
