The stars of the Democratic Party are so extreme that they fancy themselves, socialists. Considering the abject poverty in Venezuela, free speech suppression in China and Cuba, and the fact the Soviet Union collapsed, reasonable people might conclude socialism doesn’t work. Upstarts such as Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and eccentric Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders would disagree.
On the Republican side of the aisle, far-right politicians are often not viewed as far right enough. Infringement on gun rights, tax money being used for abortions and inadequate border security have GOP voters upset.
In this exclusive news video, a recent poll of American voters indicates that politicians on both sides of the aisle are not a reflection of the will of the people. Call it Washington elitism if you like, but there’s a reason that populist candidates such as President Trump and others around the world are winning elections.
With that reality in mind, a panel of people with diverse political affiliations speak to the salient issues facing the United States today. From Rep. Ocasio-Cortez’ view that “socialism will win” to Medicare for All, Democrats, Libertarians, Republicans and Independents appear to all agree that the status quo is not working. Change is needed and the current class of ideologues does not have a clue how to fix things.
Disgruntled Americans are looking for real people with constructive solutions. Take a look at the opinions expressed in this insightful video. They might sound like yours.
