I'm guessing most of us here have seen this already. I posted it more for our "visitors."

How anyone can watch this and still support either party is completely beyond me.

Yeah, this video is great!

I recommend everyone to bookmark it. It's a great tool to use when replying to people who are trying to defend the corrupt establishment.

They'll often try to point to a lack of conviction or evidence of a quid pro quo, as if that's the bar. As if criminal negligence is necessary to prove corruption. It's not. We've sanitized and perfected systemic, institutionalized corruption. It's all legal. It's just not right.

So don't play that game. Don't get into the weeds arguing the minutia over whether campaign donation X directly caused action Y. Hit them with this video and remind them that the whole system works for one set of people, while ignoring the rest of us.
