    Proposition: The person best suited to deliver America from the phony billionaire savior in the White House is probably not an attendee of the Allen & Co. conference in Sun Valley. Don’t @ me, Mike. But nice nametag.https://twitter.com/splinter_news/status/1041746091497189378 …

        You guys, we have to start asking what it is not just about these elites but also our culture that makes us crave billionaire sugar daddies and sugar mommies to deliver us from the pretend-billionaire sugar daddy.

        This is actually very deep stuff, probably. I would love to hear from psychologists about how an age of inequality fosters this fantasy.

        We must take a hard look at Bloomberg Philanthropies' / Results for America's ties to social impact investing, "What Works" outcomes-based governance, the UK "nudge unit," Smart city surveillance and digital identity. He is at the center of it all.https://wrenchinthegears.com/2018/06/24/a-100-million-secret-bipartisan-political-plan-to-privatize-the-public-sector/ …

        You're a broke pundit living on credit and you want socialism, you probably don't understand they purge journalists and intellectuals first.

        Bloomberg definitely dropped the ball on trying to address the difficulties in life for the ordinary New Yorker, much less the poor; but I don't think its impossible for him to do better with a little coaching; maybe he'll never b FDR but why think of him as beyond redemption?

        Honestly, I say we hold a draft. Random draw until eight eligible US citizens selected (and confirmed to be able and willing to hold the office for 4 years). They are independent vetted (background check, medical check, interviews). Public debates. National vote. Done.
