Oh please with the righteous indignation. Politicians of both parties just don't like the vital anti-capitalist messaging on the platform that goes against the K-College and Major Media "the boot will set you free" capitalist propaganda doctrine.
They need American children to grow to fight eachother over red vs. blue social wedges that provide the illusion of choice and keep them divided while the capitalists exploit their productivity, rob them blind, and continue to control economic policy through the Republicans and Neoliberal middle managers the oligarchs fully own.
We need to stop these channels manipulating our youth into scrutinizing our inscrutible "free" market, after all.
What our children need to know is that the ~~oligarchs~~ job creators acting out of ~~insatiable, sociopathic greed~~ rational self-interest will rain prosperity down on all of us as long as we protect our beloved ~~society~~ economy, and capitalist practices will save humanity from our many crises of completely unknowable origins... like climate change! But beware the unproductive filthy takers, as they will greedily lower your local property values with their continued selfish existence in cardboard boxes under freeways. They're the real villains.
