I buy a lot of stuff on eBay. I love eBay. Partly because it's often recycling -- buying used things -- but also it's personal. Ultimately often a transaction between two individuals, especially if I have a choice.
People bust their asses to please you. This is the other America, the real, real America. I bet I'm buying from a lot of Republicans, because they've been screwed worse by the people they elect than we have.
They're probably scrounging around more to make ends meet.
And they bust their asses to do you right, presumably because there's accountability. Otherwise they live in a world of lies, concocted by their political leaders for personal gain. Out of greed and power lust.
It was all lies -- invented problems. imaginary grievances, scapegoating and animosity. There are always challenges but ours were not bad. We could have easily been fine, but that didn't suit the money people.
So they played the 'little people' off against one another, a classic ploy. And now we're at war with one another. Over nothing. Invented shit. But he rich are raking it in -- wallowing in it. They have won.
Some tiny fraction of the electorate. And the rest of us have lost.
