      Yeah, the last time was Carter. The Clintons basically broke the alliance between the national level Dems and labor unions and they’ve been adversaries most of the time since.

        According to video I watch it was under Cater they truck driving union was taken out and deregulated the industry. Fucking over truck drivers. So no not even Cater was pro worker.

      people cannot pay as much as corporations, this will continue till we get money out of politics.

      All candidates that qualify should get a flat grant from the government for their campaign, every candidate gets the same amount.

      NO private donations

      NO corporate donations

      NO Super PACs

      none of this bullshit.

      But it won’t ever happen because we are too busy fighting with each other to even agree to point at the owner class as the problem.
