Re: More election stuff from the net
by theNairobiTrio

I'm real glad you posted that, janzee.

Cause let's see how it lines up with something I've posted here before - Seymour Martin Lipset's observation that the most fertile garden-spots for fascism are places where middle-class small business owners/famers feel squeezed between the working -class (wage demands from unions) and the uipper class (price-busting monopolies, etc.)

Now isn't your post a manifestation of exactly what Lipset was talking about?

So keep on keepin on terrorizing folks like thjat. It worked for Hitler in 32 (remember - he was elected) and Nixon in 68.

No reason it shouldn't keep on workin.

(And remember, when I use the word "fascism", I'm not throwin around the word - I mean it in its narrow economic sense of "state capitalism".)
