    There’s plenty of blame to go around. I think Clinton turning the Democrats into a bunch of corporate tools was a response to Reagan.

      Yeah, an extension of Reagan directives, but so was Reagan a product of megacorps & lobbyists that worked it’s way into controlling the politics long before that - a failed actor made the main face of (de)regulation & wealth concentration.

      Had any of the two made steps towards more democratic representation of the people the situation in USA would have been very different.
