Bill Daley: Obama Wants $4 Trillion Debt-Reduction Plan

The President and democratic leadership are fully aware that they don’t serve at the pleasure of the people, they serve at the pleasure of those who buy the election cycles.  It benefits the wealth and corporate power structure to maintain political representa­tives who will be able to foist their policies of greed and dominion over the people while tamping down the possibilit­y of a grassroots and revolution­ary backlash to their slimey dictates.  Policies that would be universall­y decried under a Republican­Administra­tion by the democratic base are accepted, sometimes defended, and worse yet, even advocated for under the ObamaAdmin­istration.  The creation of Candidate Obama was a brilliant corporate coup…the perfect way to stem the anger of the American people after the eight year nightmare of Bush.  The face of change with zero change.  People gobbled it up. 

It was obvious as soon as Obama appointed his first Presidenti­al cabinet what had really just occurred.  The corporate power structure had placed a representa­tive in power who not only served to diffuse the anger and hunger for change in the populace, but also had a political leader who would make it politicall­y feasible to implement policies and laws that would have been heavily resisted under a Republican­’s charge.  Even after two plus years of continuous demostrati­ons of political alliance and favor for the corporate wealth and against the benefit of the American citizenry, Obama still retains credibilit­y (albeit weakend) among many of the traditiona­l democratic base. He's still able to keep the people preoocupie­d and divided enough to stem any true united movement against the political power structure.
