Fascism is what you have
when the borders between corporate capital and government dissolve
Walter Benjamin

Every day a dozen or more messages
requesting urgently my signature and then
one more donation because the Senate
indeed the Presidency is at risk
if we don't raise as much as our competitors whose billionaire supporters have just put in another hundred million so it seems
that our so-called democracy is up for grabs
to the highest bidder while rich folks grow
every day richer the poor poorer
are we a democratic nation or
would plutocracy be more accurate?
