Walker win victory for redistribution of wealth upward

Posted on Saturday, June 9th, 2012 by Doug Marquardt

Bernie Sanders was on-the-money (pun intended) with his assessment of the Walker victory in Wisconsin:

There is an aggressiveness out there among the ruling class of this country, among the billionaires who are saying: “You know what? Ya, we got a whole lot now, but we want even more. And we don’t give a damn about the middle class. We don’t care about working families. We want it all. And now we can buy it.”

I think that people do not fully understand the disaster that Citizens United was. What that did is open the floodgates so that billionaires like the Koch brothers and others are now prepared to spend unbelievable sums of money to elect extreme right-wing candidates.
