We Don't Need a Republican Party, Nor a Democratic Party. . .We Need a "People Party"

I was just dozing off when I started listening to this video discussion between Noam Chomsky and David Barsimian. Very interesting how this talk hits every point right on with pure, reasonable logic. Please watch and share if you are so inclined, at your convenience of course.

Forgive me Deb if I doubt your definition of pure, reasonable logic. Logic is rarely reasonable. Logic is a bitch. Logic brings you to a decision that you don't want to make sometimes. Think about the life boat with too many people. Logic says throw the old lady over the side because you might need the strength of the nasty man because he needs to row.
Yes, we need a "people's Party", then we can change the name of the Country to "The Democrat People's Republic Of America" so we will be in tune it hall of the other "socialist governments" that the OP admires so much.

The real problem is always deciding which "people" get to speak for everyone else.
They are called independents.

The Democrats and Republicans are one party. They represent their owners. Not us.

For all you war Veterans, who I truly admire for your service, please watch the new video I am posting about a very decorated Colonel who is now advocating against the waste and greed of the military industrial complex.

He wrote a book back in 2000.
