Do.  Not.  Get.  It.<\/p>\n<p>They STILL don\u2019t get it.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m going to continue to hammer away at the overall point here that must be made regarding society as a whole, and these elections in particular: the most important social problem in America today is the total disenfranchisement of the working class white male.<\/p>\n<p>Why is it so hard for others to see this?  Why were others so shocked at the election results?  Only a fool or a child would not have seen this coming.<\/p>\n<p>Our oligarchs seem to have no understanding of the actual country that the populace lives in, and no inclination to try to rectify that problem, either.<\/p>\n<p>Why is it so hard to simply say what is the most obvious thing on Earth?  Do they truly not have a grasp of what is going on right in front of them or something?<\/p>\n<p>Again- the most important social problem in the US today is the disenfranchisement of the working class white male.  Again- the most important social problem in the US today is the disenfranchisement of the working class white male.  Again- the most important social problem in the US today is the disenfranchisement of the working class white male.  Again- the most important social problem in the US today is the disenfranchisement of the working class white male.  <\/p>\n<p>Do I need to repeat myself further?  <\/p>\n<p>Why is there still no intelligent analysis of this problem at all in any mainstream media outlet or in fact <em>anywhere<\/em>?<\/p>\n<p>Oy.  <\/p>\n<p>These elections were not a vote of confidence in the Republicans.  Far from it.  They were a solid rejection of the criminality and horror of the Obama administration by its primary victims.<\/p>\n<p>I already know how this election cycle will play out.  I can see the wheels turning already.<\/p>\n<p>The Republicans will do the stupidest thing possible with their victories this week: they will squander it and stubbornly refuse to do anything to help those that actually elected them, thus alienating their all-important demographic even further, and possibly pushing them out of politics entirely.<\/p>\n<p>If they leave politics entirely after another Republican betrayal, then the war I predicted earlier will happen.  Blood will run in the streets and that will be that for the land of freedom and opportunity.  <\/p>\n<p>Moving beyond the issue I\u2019ve just raised, why is there no alarm at the fact that income inequality in this country is today higher than it was during the great depression?  Why is there no alarm at the fact that the Chinese government, a supposed enemy to the US, is actively colonizing the US homeland with its \u201cindustrial zones\u201d?<\/p>\n<p>The way we\u2019re going leads to bloodshed and death, if not genocide.  <\/p>\n<p>But seeing as how nobody but me cares, well, that\u2019s life I guess.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>They.
