Obama did what he thought was best but Progressives must accept no less than Medicare for All and more

March 28, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Progressives Obama

Progressives always wanted a single-payer system & knew that President Obama wanted one too. We continued to push him but ultimately continued relatively criticism-less tolerance.

We can’t allow coerced narratives to force actions detrimental to us all.

March 20, 2019 By Egberto Willies

We can't allow coerced narratives to force actions detrimental to us aaa

When it comes to politics, it’s all about the narrative. Unfortunately, we often fall victim to several forms of narrative that put us in a mode where we begin to exist in an alternate reality. The culprit: coerced narratives The Trump administration wants to oust Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Trump wants a clean break and the ascension of a new president who represents […]

Preparing for war in Venezuela? I’ve seen this play before

March 13, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Venezuela

The Venezuela story serves two purposes that feed off of each other. Millennials and other Americans are realizing that the current economy is extractive on most.

Want GOP to stop using the word Socialist to scare off Democrats? Make Capitalism a bad word.

March 8, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Progressives are scared to call out Capitalism by name just like they stare into the lights when the GOP calls them Socialists.

A move to the center is a continued fraud on Americans

February 28, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Left not center

Progressives must disregard all calls to move to the center. The status quo is not sustainable and will continue to screw the poor and the middle-class. The traditional mainstream media are giving Republicans a lot of airtime and print space. They are using that windfall to inflict an unwarranted fear into many Democrats advising them […]

Let’s reset and have civil & respectful debates as we choose the best Democratic candidate

February 21, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Democratic Candidates

There are many external forces already poised to create chaos in the Democratic Party by pitting different factions against each other. We do not need to help them further.

We must take back our wealth from the super rich methodically before it is too late

February 12, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Tax wealth the wealthy rich

Many think that when anyone criticizes the super rich—specifically the multimillionaires and the billionaires—that it stems from nothing more than wealth envy. While that may be true for a few who themselves were unable to attain that feat, for most it is about equity and fairness.  Most remember the speech about greed given by Michael Douglas’ character […]

There is absolutely no doubt that we can pay for Medicare for All and we better!

February 7, 2019 By Egberto Willies

There is absolutely no doubt that we can pay for Medicare for All and we better!

We must allow neither Democrats nor Republicans to tell us we cannot afford Medicare for All. A betrayal of the poor and middle-class should come at a cost.

The real reason billionaires want to be President is sinister

January 31, 2019 By Egberto Willies

The real reason billionaires want to be President is sinister

Being president to a billionaire has to be a crummy job. Having substantial control is easier. When their fortunes are at risk, any one of then is willing.

Why they fear Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

January 24, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Ocasio-Cortez is a leader in the largest potential voting block in the country, the Millennials. They are living the realities she articulates.
