If things go as they have been...Mexico will join the Lurch to the Left that is sweeping global politics; as people FINALLY give up on the greedy elites...and realize that they must assert their political interests to make any progress.
In that sense, the world's Reagan/Thatcher Era may FINALLY be ending...FOR GOOD!
The Reagan/Thatcher appeal was anti-union, anti-worker and anti-welfare state.
But now, the ordinary citizen/worker in the US...and indeed around the world...is desperate for change...and for some fairness in the way wealth is distributed.
The elites have overstayed their usefulness...the Lurch to the Left will continue... And it will start in earnest this November...as Democrats regain a voice in Washington.
This is important to Wall Street...because there will be a whole new Mojo in the media and on the minds of the public once the current elite in Washington is sent packing...
Will Bubba still be worried about Homosexuals...or his pension and job?
THESE ARE THE LAST DAYS OF REAGANISM...
AND DUBYA, THE MORON PRESIDENT, IS THE FITTING FINAL CHAPTER FOR AN ERA THAT HAS LASTED TOO LONG...AND DONE SO MUCH DAMAGE TO THE PROGRESSIVE AGENDA...
THE VERY PROGRESSIVE AGENDATHAT WAS THE CENTER OF AMERICAN POLITICS FROM 1932 TO 1982.
NOW BEGINS THE "NEW PROGRESSIVISM"...BUT IT'S STILL AT ITS VERY BEGINNINGS.
"Things" are not quite "bad enough" to have everyone convinced. But they are getting there every day...
We aren't even talking about the real problems in Washington like the "twin deficits," or how to pay for the needed entitlements Americans have been promised for their survival.
Instead, the K-Street Kongress wasted last week debating the "Flag Burning Amendment!!" IS THAT WHAT PEORIA IS THINKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW?
And the nut cases in the Religious Right are still living in their bizarre fantasy worlds---where killing Muslims will "Bring Jesus back to convert the Jews!"
Wall Street exploits these sad and misguided people to the fullest every election cycle.
But things are changing...
Even as we are lulled into complacency by the dog days of summer.
