Neoliberalism

Well, the Presidential Farce begins and the creepy candidates are running out of the gate! McCain is appealing to people who believe in the privatization of education, war mongering, Anti-Arabic racism, anti-immigrant policies, the defunding of key government programs, the destruction of individual civil liberties, the right to reproductive choice, the bolstering of NASA/NSA style spying, and the further privatization of the health care system supporting Big Insurance companies. On the other hand, Obama is fueling his campaign with so much "hope" and "belief" that many smart thinking people wrecked by neoliberalism are ignoring his unfettered belief in the so-called "free market." When you look at the number of homeless folks on the street, poor people around my neighborhood, and ever wealthier rich populations it is quite clear that the "free market" system is screwing most people over.

He is, for lack of a better word, mangy. Unshaved, and his shirt permanently food stained.
