Over the last 40 years, a significant portion of the white working class has gotten a small taste of what African Americans have experienced during their first 350 years in America, which is 90% of America's existence on this planet
Now the Big Big lie that started in the early 1980's, by Ronald Reagan and the republican party is that the US economy is actually strong and resilient and works best if government simply gets out of the way and lets the invisible hand of the private sector, heal and grow the economy, allocating capital through out the economy based on an economy that is economic, strong having the insight to know how to fund the economy in the most equitable and productive way possible. This lie, over the last 40 years created the greatest wealth inequality in the history of the world and the greatest catastrophic private sector debt pile on a per GDP basis, that the world has ever seen. This means that the crazy catastrophically massive wealth pile that the wealthiest top 10% of Americans are hoarding and sitting upon is only worth a small fraction of what the market is showing us today.
Over this 40 year period, wealth transfer from the bottom 80% to the top 10% has been well over $50 Trillion. This explains how the wealth and livelihood of the bottom 80% has been hallowed out over the past 40 years. It is the primary reason that many of our white brothers and sisters in the bottom 80% have now begun to get a, small taste, on a massive levels, all over America, more specifically over the past 10 - 20 years, what African Americans have experienced during their first 350 years here in America.
The big big lie, told white Americans over the past 40 years, that if you work hard, keep your head down, go with the flow, you will be OK, because this is America, we have the greatest economy in the world, and when those at the top do well, this economy is just, right and strong and will lift up the boats of all the Yacht's and the Ship's of the wealthy and well connected as well as the paddle boats of the average American family. Not only did this not happen. Many white Americans lost their boats, homes jobs and others assets, with no help coming from no where, over the last 20 years and nothing in the foreseeable future. The Big Big lie is a double whammy, because the republicans told them to trust the private sector and to keep the government out of the private sector, what this did was to give business, corporate America and the financial system the excessive market power to royally screw middle and lower class America, because the policies put in place by corporate America and Wallstreet has allowed Corporate America and investors to destroy competitive economic protections for consumers, the middle class and small and medium size businesses, leaving many white middle aged working class with no jobs, no job opportunities, no retirement and no help from the government because they believed corporate America and investors, that big government is bad, and they should not be supporting policies that give help and handouts to those who fall through the cracks. If they fall through the cracks its because they did not try and they are just getting what they deserve.
Now the big new lie is a continuation of the Big Big old lie. The big new lie still contends that the US economy is strong, healthy and allocating capital in the best way humanly possible based on the free and fair market principles of capitalism, etc.... but the bumps in the road that we have experienced over the past 10 - 20 years where white Americans have lost homes, jobs, retirement, standard of living, etc...has nothing to do with capitalism or any market failures in the US economy, the primary cause for the white working classes woes are the immigrants, lazy and ungrateful African Americans and the crazy immoral environmental lefties that have stole your jobs and any new opportunities that you might have now or in the future because big government is favoring them over you. This is the foundation of the new big lie that the republican party has been pushing over the last 10 - 20 years. Victimizing and creating a cult like following from these Americans precisely because if they were to use any logic, any science, any rational thought about what has happened to them financially and what they are being sold to today, by the republican party of Donald Trump or the republican party of of the past 40 years, they are all based on the principle lie and distraction that takes peoples eyes off of the ball that the US economy is really the problem. The US economy is a consumption and investment Ponzi scheme that allows the rich and the well connected to make out like bandits while an increasingly larger and larger percentage of he population is going broke and getting robbed blindly with their eyes wide open. The big issue here though, is not that we want to gang up on the rich guys and take their money and throw them in Jail. We can't do that. We need them as badly as they need us. We need to all get on the same team before its too late for all of us. In a Ponzi Scheme, eventually everyone looses, big time. It's in all of our interest, to work together to make the US economy work best for everyone while that opportunity still exists for all of us.
So Trump supporters, Aftifa, Bidden supporter, whoever, we are in the last inning both financial and environmentally. We have about 3 - 5 years to get this ship steering in the right direction before it becomes fundamentally to late to prevent the ship from going over the water fall. It's time out for all this Kindergarten and Jr. High behavior by grown ass adults in America. We have to come together as brothers and sisters in a fight to save our economy and our environment by first saving our relationships with each other. If we cannot love one another like we would like others to love us, we are doomed to the burning fires of hell on earth, literally, global warming and a permanent global financial collapse.
We have time to fix this but it requires all hands on deck and everyone working together as family, not savagely fighting and killing each other because we don't look, think, act or talk alike. When we look at a rain bow or listen to the diverse and different instruments and sounds in a 100 piece orchestra - do we frown and think negatively the colors or sounds are different? No, different is not bad. Different is beautiful, when differences make the time and put in the investment necessary to blend and create the harmony and synergy that creates value added absolutely unachievable, if the time and investment spent to create those harmonies and synergies were left undone.
Divide and Conquer, its the oldest trick in the book. Common America, Let's do the Economic Gospel for the USA to save ourselves and save our babies for both current and future generations of America, starting Today!!!!!!!!!!!
