I understand, but we must acknowledge reality. Right now, we are a duopoly. We cannot fix that before the election. I too am a socialist. I would love to see someone run on stripping all the uber wealthy of most of their wealth; requiring they actually work for their money; public funding of all education, health care, and fixing the prices of housing (and restrictions on how many square feet a person can have) - but hey. Someone running on that platform would never make it out of their own living room. We have a lot of work to do. We will not see the results. it may be 50 years before the mess can be fixed. I too am 72. You and I will be dead by then.
