We don’t have cheap used cars anymore because of the “cash for clunkers” program Obama instituted. Obama wiped out decades of used cars and parts that were readily available before that program, thus, when the supply shrunk down to a fraction of what it had been 15 years ago, used car prices skyrocketed, and parts to fix those cars skyrocketed in price.

I’m not placing blame on Obama per se, it would’ve happened if a Republican was president too, because that’s how it works….whatever the oligarch j’ws want, they get. There will always be just enough people in Congress who vote for what the oligarchs want regardless of who controls house, senate and the executive branch.

Like voting rights for women and blacks, forced integration and the civil rights act, the Hart Cellar act/demographic shift, NAFTA, the patriot act, the wars since 2001 etc….the majority opposed all of those things and they happened anyway. It doesn’t matter how the people feel about these things, it’s all predetermined and meant to spread out the blame for why these policies happened, so we blame one party or the other, or we blame these few corrupt reps for nothing getting fixed. The truth is those policies are coming whether you like it or not, but they can’t have you understanding it’s all predetermined, because you would revolt and forcefully replace a system that doesn't represent your interests. plus the voting system gives them the benefit of divide and conquer.

What you just described is the reason I view democracies to be the crueler system to live under than dictatorship.
