Nancy Pelosi: No Fiscal Cliff Deal Without Tax Hikes For Rich
Sunday, November 18, 2012
As a very old political activist, I don't know where the idea that winning an election in itself isn't a mandate, but it's nonsense: A win is a win, a transfer of power, and it's a mandate for whatever the term of office is.
That said, Obama didn't run on anything except being "the lesser of the two evils." He can and will do whatever the Corporate Masters want him to do. He'll be aided by politicians on both sides of the aisle, and none of it is good for ordinary Americans. There will be more privatization, less enforcement of regulations (with Republicans you get fewer regulations; with Democrats you get less enforcement of regulations -- The net result is the same). Unless.
Unless the People are willing to take to the streets.
