There are times when Bernie and AOC aggravate me. Other times I think they're pretty smart. That's okay, I don't have to agree with someone 100% of the time. But, the rich...never in human history has greed trumped common sense as it does today. They use their wealth to promote negative consequences for society., and as long as they put more in their well lined pockets they're happy. Too much is not enough. Fuck em.
At least you can have the freedom to be aggravated by a progressive. I live in Texas with corrupt politicians leading our state. Ever hear of ERCOT? I have, daily through text messages to "conserve energy or else". Just fix the fucking grid hot wheels. Stop wasting money on idiotic floating barriers that are illegal in the Rio Grande. I'm here for someone that wants to at least attempt to change something.

One of the first fire brigades was owned by Marcus Crassus. He'd offer to save your house in exchange for selling it to him at miserable prices and often allow you to rent it afterwards. But you got to keep your stuff in the house, so he wasn't all bad, right? Yeah, Marcus Crassus was a pretty shitty guy.
