The 2012 election didn’t change anything. Obama continued the huge transfers of wealth to the financial sector begun by Bush and the execrable Hank Paulson. He refused to impose any consequences on the thousands of cheats and liars on Wall Street other than to fine their corporate sponsors. He watched as mayors of both parties crushed the Occupy dissenters using the paramilitary police Bush armed to the teeth. He refused to stand by labor unions, which were crucial to his election, either in general, through insisting on card check, or specifically, as in Wisconsin. He made it clear he would sacrifice Social Security and Medicare to the rapacious demands of the oligarchic rich, and continues to do so today. Elections Without Consequences ☀

Um, it’s a bit hard for an election to change things before the election has actually happened don’t you think?
