Former U.S. Labor Secretary Bullish on Democracy
From Robert Reich: Obviously, I can’t tell you how today’s elections will turn out. But I do want to reassure you about one thing: Over the long term, we are winning. Why else would the election deniers, the monied interests, the bigots, and the haters be fighting so hard to defeat us?
I like his optimism, but I don’t see the logic. Yes, they’re fighting hard to defeat us, but that doesn’t mean they’re not winning.
Today’s midterms are a watershed event for the United States.
